    Healing Paws

    By Ted Grussing

    I got a rather late start this morning and it was about 9A before I took off … got some more great video with the GoPro and will work on that this weekend and put another and better polished video up. The sky was starting to OD to the NE when I took off and another terrific cumulous nimbus cloud was developing to the SW behind Mingus so I was not expecting a long flight. By the time I got up past Munds Park there was lightning about ten miles to the NE and more to the SW. The clouds were developing quickly around me and base was only about 10,000’. And I was about 11,000’ when I took this shot looking to the WNW from an area near over West Fork Canyon. Sitgreaves Mountain is just above center photograph … left the wing tip in the right side of the image and it adds a little reality to the shot.

    Shortly after I took this shot, the CuNim over Mingus had totally over developed and had an anvil top and it was blowing out. So with that one overdeveloping and more to the N and NE doing the same a prudent decision was made to land and fly another day.

    Last year I had special caps made for my wing tanks to accept a GoPro, but the job that was done was such that it would not work, so a friend in Cottonwood is going to modify them to work, heading down there Thursday and then install them on Mariah. They are pretty neat in that you can remote control them from your cell phone whilst flying. Eventually the plan is to mount them, one pointing forward and one down the top of the wing so I can get cool shots looking down the wing which will be great for flying along cliff faces or in steep turns. Need to keep one in the cockpit too. Might get to try it this coming weekend.

    Have a beautiful day and keep breathing.

    Give me to gladly go
    My way and say
    No word of mine own woe;
    But let me smile each day

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
