I had planned to launch this morning but yesterday it rained almost continuo=
usly for 11 hours.  First time we have had a local flood on top of the Suwan=
nee river flooding.   Only had 500 usable feet of runway this morning, just n=
ot enough for MGWTO.  Planning on tomorrow AM takeoff if it dries enough tod=
ay.  Hope to see you then.
