The fourth task was to the east south east on the first leg, then a short leg to
the northeast, from the airfield at Live Oak to a little grass strip with a very
friendly owner who was amazed at how bad the landings were. Apparently the wind
was switchy. Length, 99 kilometers.

Thirty five or so pilots made goal. Zippy was the first pilot in. Carl perhaps
won the day taking the second start.

While there were cu's when we started launching, the sky dried up as forecasted. 
The winds were out of the west southwest and the course line took us over swamp
lands requiring safety oriented pilots to go south of the course line. Most
pilots went right over the swamp lands as the winds were pushing them to the
north of the north of the course line.

Joe Bostik had an interesting time landing on prison grounds and getting a
complete dressing down by the guards. There was a strong inversion which kept
most of the climbs under 5,000' often far under.

I had a pleasant enough thirty kilometer flight starting near the end of the
line after the rigid wings. Kept up with them for twenty kilometers. At thirty
kilometers out the forest began along interstate ten and I went south to stay
over cultivated areas, but went down immediately when I did so.

We are in Moultrie and ready for a good task tomorrow.
