Florida, Bahamas

All the way home.

Went out to check the runway condition and found it firm over almost the entire length and width... certainly enough for my light plane. Met Don M. there and he offered to drive me to Fredericton airport so I could retrieve my plane.

Done. After landing I avoided turning on the pavement and just pushed it backwards to taxiway CB. Did not nee to use the bog boards under the wheels to cross the grass; saw no depressions in the turf.
