I took this shot last December whilst flying the NW face of the San Francisco Peaks N of Flagstaff. There was some snow on the peaks and I like to get shots of the patterns and textures on the mountain side … you get neat stuff like this one. The natural world is kinda cool and it doesn’t take much technology to enjoy it … I’ll be looking at this shot on my smart phone, laptop, flat screen television (now a monitor for another computer) and two tablets during the day tomorrow. Best view is still the real deal though, but the photos are a way of sharing the beauty. Cropped, that is it.
No Mariah today … winds are going to be up again and it needs a couple of parts that are a wee bit on the critical side … to connect the rudder and steerable tail wheel to the control rods. It will be easier to find my way back to Sedona with some directional control … and I do not want to have two paint jobs back to back :+)
So a loosely planned day with a friend coming up for a visit this morning is underway and these are good days … the joy of friendship.
Today was good … another 20GB of photos hit the ether and are spreading out across the universe … probably hooking up with a few photos I have spent two hours looking for … I know I have them … I know a friend will call me encouraging me to get organized with a certain program :+)
Have an absolutely wonderful day and look for beauty during the day and share your joy and a few smiles as well. One is on her back with feet in the air between the keyboard and the monitors … she always seems to have good days … she snuggles and purrs.
Cheers
Ted
Sleep sweetly now that the gates of the crimson night are closed,
and leave tomorrow’s struggle for tomorrow;
The earth is peaceful, only the stars and still moon are abroad, and they wage no war.
