Day Seven - October 22, 2003

Don & Paula Lounsbury; Top-cover pilots for OM since the very beginning in 1993, remove the covers that prevent frost from settling on the wings of their Cessna.
As Joe waits for a couple of tardy cranes to exit their enclosure of the past four days those already in place are excited and ready to lift-off.

No words required...

14 cranes off the lead aircraft and a single bird off Richard's right wingtip as they disappear over the Baraboo hills, and from our view.  Crane 303 made the trip in a crate but she is quite anxious to fly - perhaps by this coming Monday.
