Winter Flying

So, Rob hasn't done as much flying this winter as he would like.  The fall was spent building a hangar - which he has YET to show me, because "it's not quite done".  The mistress moved in soon after the walls and ceiling were finished.  She's now officially a 'kept woman'.  But, having your own hangar means maintaining an airstrip through winter, and this winter has been unusually tough on that front.  Bitter cold, tons of snow, and difficult access means that getting the bird up in the air has taken a lot more effort than the last winter. 

It just so happens, though, that Rob went fling on February 7th, and a friend of his was also flying.  They met, mid-air, unbeknownst to each other.  And his friend happened to have his camera with him.  This led to a rare, fortuitous mid-air photo shoot over Portage Lake.  Pretty cool.

Here's the results:
