I went back in the live stream to watch it all again. LOL It’s nice to see planes on the lake after so long. They didn’t get to use the lake much over the winter because it snowed too soon after the ice started forming. That made it take a lot longer for the ice to get thick enough for the planes. Then it just kept. on. snowing and the snow was too deep for the ski planes. The few times they got the groomer out to smooth some runways, it would snow again. They gave up.
Looking forward to seeing the Grumman Goose back on the lake again. That is a cool plane.
Heard from laurenmarlowe who is/was working an event...I think fairly near her.
Last night they had 30 minutes notice to shut down. Just as she got to her car, “...to get in to leave, when a huge bolt of lightning struck”.
And they were evacuated again tonight because of lightning.
