On the horizon...


Just now back to work for real, for the first time since all the weirdness. Am cranking through orders like mad and promise to have everything in the post on Monday! We have stuff shipping out to Texas, Illinois, and Florida, amongst others.

Arion and I are getting along quite nicely. After a couple days of terrible weather and surly attitudes about flying in it, we had two very nice workouts over the past two days. I think we're at combat weight--or he is, anyway, I've still got a bit to go on that one ;0)--and Callan thinks we're ready to ditch the creance as soon as there's a good, clear day for it. Hooray!

In the meantime I'll keep working on making him to the lure and conditioning his flight muscles with ground-to-glove jumps and increasing flight distance on the creance, though I think he hates the feel of the drag.

Yesterday we were flying on the football field at the local middle school. I didn't know anyone else was there, but we gathered a bit of a crowd when they came out to see what all the whistling was about. Oops.
