    … I got this shot of a drake Ringneck climbing out of a fish pond at Bubbling Ponds Fish Hatchery yesterday afternoon. Weekend traffic being what it is, I went the back way through Page Springs to SR 89A and up into Sedona; after the get together at Jim’s hangar, I came home the same way and stopped to walk the ponds. Usually the ducks are flying away from me, but this little guy was coming almost right at me and that is a treat! Most of the ducks are long gone to the north and their breeding grounds, but a few are staying behind.

    I had a nice flight this morning and although there was that all encompassing haze over the ground as far as you could see, after shooting the peaks, I did drop down to try and get the reflection of the San Francisco Peaks in Rogers Lake which has a fair amount of water in it. I was not able to get the reflection I wanted, but I did get some nice shots … going low trying to get the reflection, the trees look kinda big. I’ll send one of them out tomorrow night unless I get a better one tomorrow during the day. Also, I shot the toxic waste water ponds in Jerome and they make me wonder if they glow at night … beautiful in a deadly other-worldly kind of way.

    I’m going to try and catch up on emails this week and apologize for my seeming lack of responsiveness to your emails … not intentional, but periodically I get swamped and the correspondence suffers. Keep the faith! I will write.

    Have a beautiful day … yes I am back on espresso nearly every morning again … it makes the day go better.

    Cheers and keep breathing!

    is patient where the way is hard, has faith when he does not understand, and carries
    into the dark places the light of a cheerful heart.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
