| Submitter's comments: |
Welcome to the Thanksgiving Weekend Races. Today we fly from Minden. The front that passed through over the weekend is moving east. High pressure is starting to build in, but there is still a significant westerly flow. We'll finish up at the Hilton Ranch this evening. The staff is waiting, with all the normal Hilton hospitality. |
