Grooming on the East side of the runway looking West.
This required a lot of manual and physical labor, raking and grooming the slope. But this was required to create the grass runway that we all enjoy now.
This was our first gate that was located at the entrance of Ridgecrest Drive, which is no longer there.
This was the second gate that we had to go through and is now are main gate. Notice the tree on the right of the gate which was eventually cut down. Also notice there was no storage shed. The white box that you see to right of the gate was our temporary power.
This picture is looking North West at our newly laid asphalt.
Raking and Cleaning up piles of rocks and garbage. This was in preparation for the infield grass.
Loading all the rocks and debris into the tractor.

PIZZA, PIZZA Working hard all day on the field builds a hearty appetite. Round Table Pizza was delivered by this young man. Do you know the year and make of this car?
Up Up and away with the first flight on the runway by your amalgamated flyer Bill Miller
After all the hard work on the field, getting to fly on the new runway was a real treat. All the hard work was worth it. Does this look like Bill Miller?
Birds eye view of the field the first year. Do you recognize the area? Can you find the field? Looks different today.
