Last flight o' a great day.  Good boost, smooth and straight.  Arcin' over at t' top o' t' climb, more or less horizontal at ejection.  Nay driftin' much up high, but movin' slowly down low.  Landed on t' far side o' t' creek in t' brush next tot he corn field.  Took a bilge-suckin' line in and ended up gettin' pretty wet and muddy beofre I spotted it high and dry in a clear spot next t' t' field.  Had a titanic struggle gettin' t' motor out since t' label on t' AT single use motor just bunched up inside t' motor tube.  Had t' resort t' t' toolbox when I got home t' finally twist it free.  No damage t' t' rocket.
