Half Day Trip (AM)
Booked a trip for Friday after Thanksgiving but there was supposed to be bad weather rolling in that day so Captain Si called to see if I could go Wednesday which worked out great. Awesome weather, not much chop, he picked some good spots, had a great time. His Captain in training Dakota was very helpful and knowledgeable as well
