Tried the old grape juice "wonder drug" for the long-legged trip today.  Flew
from deep South Texas (Weslaco) to an EAA Fly-In at Sulfur Springs, just NE of
Dallas.  Duration of my flight - 3hrs, 13 min.   Duration of my bladder w/
grape juice - 3 hrs,
2 min.!   I thought I was going to pop before I got to the airport!  I have
never seen 10 minutes move so slowly before!  Felt bad about walking away from
the plane while people were asking about it.  Hey, 1st things 1st, right?
Anyway, for the return trip, just went back to plain ol' water - NO problems.
In fact, I landed, put the plane up, hit a fast food joint drive-in, and drove
25 miles home before nature called.  It might have been a fluke, but I think
I'll just stay w/ my H2O.
