With a heavy heart I think of flying. But it is winter, the weather is bad, the grass runway is wet and the airfield is closed.

there is nothing dumber than travelling by aircraft.
Zachary Robinson
Nothing is dumber than not being in control of any vehicle you're in
Blake Jones
I've flown airplanes, raced cars, raced motorcycles, raced sailboats, and bicycles.
I also have rockclimbed, snowboarded, surfed, and downhill longboarded.
I don't measure things by what is dumber than others, or dumbest. I just do what I feel like.
Pussy.

You know what they say though.
If there's grass on the field and especially if it's wet, it's time to play
Grayson Lewis
Wet grass is not a problem with proper soft field technique. It is not taught very well in most training programs, so very few people know how to actually do it.
Flaps 2 stages, stick FULL BACK, full power, as the nose wheel lifts reduce pressure and keep plane on main wheels, let speed build and lift into ground effect ... remain in ground effect until you reach normal rotation speed and climb away, retract flaps in stages.
You can thank me later.
