Right decision, Bob. Who knows when the gusts would begin - always another day. Disappointing undoubtedly, but the thrill will be no less due to the wait (well, it could be a bit less - without hairy cross wind landing {:>)).

No flight today. There was a 5 Kt crosswind when I got to the
airport. No big deal, except I'm a low time taildragger pilot and if
something else was going wrong I didn't want to deal with the extra
load. The FBO on field said winds were predicted to get to 25 Kt
gusts later although it never got that bad.
This weekend will be my mom's 80th birthday party, so maybe next week.
Thanks again for all the good wishes.
