    … with all of the smoke, haze and clouds the sky had a rather ominous quality this morning. This is a shot I took of the Museum fire this morning; they have a TFR (temporary flight restriction) over the fire from ground to 13,000’ due to the many aircraft, and helicopters they have in to fight the blaze. I took this shot from 14,865’ which was well above the restricted airspace. Currently the fire is around 1,000 acres and is about 10% contained.

    The actual museum (Museum of Northern Arizona) is a long way from the fire and for whatever reason a very non-descriptive name was assigned to the fire. The lower right corner is Mt. Elden … above the smoke you can see O’Leary Peak and on the left the San Francisco Peaks. The museum is off the picture to the left … many miles away, so no fears about a lot of beautiful art and history going up in smoke. Mt. Elden is one of several exogenous dacite domes in the San Francisco Volcanic Field … these are formed by very viscous lava building up and forming overlapping flows of a rather bulbous nature … almost looks like an elephant foot in this photo.

    It was cool up there which was welcome … 46 degrees F at 14,865’. So sweet!

    Kind of torn between flying again in the morning and being semi responsible and begin documenting the opal and taking initial photographs of it … with all the smoke in the air I think I’ll opt for the opal project and the great and cool indoors.

    Have a beautiful day, smile at those you meet and greet today and mostly … enjoy the beauty of being alive … and keep breathing!

    Cheers

    Though changed as are my songs from youth,
    A voice within my heart still sings,
    Live thou in tenderness and truth,
    And love mankind instead of things.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
