| South of Dover following SR1 |
The plan was to head out of KOXB and back to N57 around 6:30 and get us back before I turned into a pumpkin, I'm not night current. The flight home was smooth but very hazy. At 4.5 there was spotty ground contact for much distance other than directly below us. I should log it as IMC since I was on the instruments for most of the flight. I did pick up flight following with Dover approach and they in turn handed me off to Philly. As I passed south of KILG I cancelled with Philly so I could let down for N57. I loaded up the VOR RWY 24 approach as a plan B but as I descended I could spot the grain silo beacon about three miles out. I announced a left base followed by a turn to final and worked my way to the runway.

Glad you got the airplane out for some exercise! I hope your back is feeling better.
It's always a good sign when the new neighbors give you such a terrific welcome to the neighborhood. We weren't exactly on the receiving end of a party when we arrived in our current house, but the welcome we got from the neighborhood was unlikely any I had ever experienced after any other move and it's a great feeling!
Best wishes as your new adventure continued to unfold!
Chris,
Thanks! It'as all coming together, slowly. Now if we could sell the house in Wilmington life would be great!
FYI, I saw the text/post Steve made about the park in Ohio. Only a 2.5 hour flight for me but not into the camping thing. We will all have to think of a meet up before summer slips away.
If you were using flight following, you were VFR. If you were in IMC, you were operating illegally. I think.
I was VFR, with flight following. It was just so hazy looking ahead at 4.5, once lower it was a bit better but one humid hazy ugly view.
