Lucerne, March 2018 was a washout

I was excited to finally fly an Aerotech 98mm, 2-grain, L2500 Super Thunder with stainless steel forward closure at Lucerne.  It was raining lightly in North County SD as I left to drive up that way.  It continued to rain, on and off, over the drive until I got through Apple Valley... where it worsened.  As I got closer to the dry lake bed the rain further increased.  Hmph.  I turned around and headed home at the pink X below:

That's the closest I've been to Lucern in nearly a year and a half. Better luck next month.
