2003 Chili-Dog Fun Fly

Photos and commentary by Andy Steere.

NOTE!: The following images and movies were taken at the 2003 Chili-Dog Fun Fly on October 25th, 2003. As is usually the case... the weather didn't cooperate. Despite 50F temps (and falling during the day) and scattered rain showers, we had about 20 people participate. Billy Neal brought his awesome chili and club members brought an assortment of side dishes.
