Took a trip to Macon, MO this weekend. Lots of surprises including an unexpected stay at the Macon memorial airport due to non stop rain.

Here's a few pics I thought I'd share.
gettin' ****** in front of a fire pit that took 4 drunks 1 hour to build.

Patrick posing as the new NRA spokesperson... Coffee, guns, America. The trifecta for sure!

Old ass house in the middle of nowhere. Still had wall paper from like 100 years ago in it.

Taken just outside the front porch of the lodge we stayed in. The view was awesome!

The planes we flew into town in. I piloted the Piper Warrior III on the right. My friend flew the Cessna on the left.

Told the server it was Patrick's B-Day. They came out and threw whipped cream all over his face.

That soon turned into a dessert food fight while me and another guy sat back and drank a pitcher each of margaritas :laugh_ti:

After an afternoon of low ceilings, fog, and thunderstorms, we chose not to fly back to KC. So the manager of the local airport was nice enough to let us spend the night. He gave us one of his cars to drive around in and keys to the airport. So for an entire evening, we had the entire grounds to ourselves. It was bad ass. Thanks Wayne for your hospitality!

Clouds finally went away and we were left with an awesome view of the country.

Made it back to KMKC downtown airport. Our planes parked in front of the skyline.

I forgot to mention that on the way back, I had to drop my friend off at Kansas City International Airport as he flew in from DC for the weekend... So here I am in my 4 seater Piper, sitting on the taxi way behind a US Airways 747 and in front of a United Airlines MD-80. I can only imagine what those pilots were thinking :lol:

"9193 Kilo to Ground Control Tower, holding short at Bravo 9er for the toy plane" :nut:
