there was a notice for me to see the officer in the tower. It seems I was too slow in getting off the ground in the formation take off & endangered so planes idling nearby. That was a just & true criticism. I was aware of it at the time. However, this fellow turned out to be ok & didn't get all worked up about it. Next, I walked off to shoot some trap & forgot a board watch I was supposed to stand. And lastly, on my way out to Martines a cop stopped me for driving in the middle of the road or some such thing. Happily, almost singularly, I had my drivers license with me & got off without paying a fine. Whew, what a day--I pass.
