Before Derecho hit Cedar Rapids in August 2020 I could never launch or land at my house.

Before Derecho hit Cedar Rapids in August 2020 I could never launch or land at my house. I’ve launched there several times since then and last night I missed landing there by 150 feet. It was another beautiful night flying over the area. Reid and I both landed at the same spot. Maggie found lots of burrs and thought rolling inside the envelope would help take care of them. Thanks everybody!
