Wow. Another hit to the Stovebolt Family. Condolences to Pat. Mike and Pat contributed so much .. at Kansas City and more. Mike was the quintessential Stovebolter ... he had a passion for this (hobby is such an inadequate word here ...) and a real love of sharing what he knew in a humble manner -- *everything* I had ever hoped this site would be about. There was so much more he had to share with us. And that which he did manage to share ... well, he touched so many of us beyond what he probably knew. How many of us lost our fear of double flaring thanks to him?

I am so glad that Peggy and I managed to share his and Pat's world, however so briefly.
... this just plain sux.
Here's a couple more pix
