You meet the nicest folks on a day of flying... Co-piloted in a 201 up to Cottonwood, AZ on Saturday. (Ok, I actually just rode right seat...) The goal was to go to a new place and try out a new $100 bkfst place. Plan was to walk about 1.2 miles from the airport to a local eatery called "Annie's." Of course, being summer in AZ, it gets hot quickly in the morning and by the time we arrive...around 11AM (late morning departure...not typical for AZ), it was already 90 or so. Thankfully, a couple of EAA guys were working on an RV there and one offered us a ride. Then, at the restaurant, a guy went to pay his bill and noticed that he had a Dave Clark baseball cap. Asked him if we was a pilot...and one thing led to another and we got a ride back to the airport. Better yet, he gave us a tour of Cottonwood first...learned about his airplane history, and shared the camaraderie of GA. Better yet, he told us that the airport does have an automated wx station that comes on via the unicom freq....except the Feds haven't published the info yet. So thanks to the two guys who gave us lifts...glad we didn't have to walk in the heat!
