Instead, I decided on a familiar route, north along the beach. I decided to show off the likes of Ocean City, Fenwick and Bethany beach Delaware,and Cape Henlopen State Park. The beaches were empty, that's a good thing with the stay in place orders. Traffic was also non-existent, I guess that's another positive result of the order.
Traffic did pick up as I approached Ocean City but everyone was working the radio and we all entered the pattern, landing without issue.
It felt really good to get back in the air today. I should be flying more often, but, without a destination, I just can't seem to motivate myself to bore holes in the sky.
Next up will be the short hop to annual inspection, and then a return flight home. I hope by that point things start to return to normal and our economy gets jump started.

Aw man, I bet it felt great to get some air under the wings again!
I learned something very important from this video: Three Tango Charlie has a shiny belly! Well done, sir! ;-)
Thanks!
3 Tango Charlie really needs a bath and a belly clean. After the parking brake valve leak repair I tried to clean as much as I could but it really needs a scrub.
nice video :-)
I really like your pre-takeoff comments about what to do if...
I just learned to do that myself and should have been doing that for years.

Derek,
Thanks for checking in and leaving a comment. I only get to do those abort and emergency plans out loud when my bride is not with me, otherwise its a mental review only. We have a plan dialed in for each runway. Don't forget to add in a rejected take off plan too.
