    … a late afternoon flight today with the intent to get some great sunset shots up at the peaks and with the snow on the peaks I expected to get some beautiful shots. Once in the air and above the plateau a different scene emerged … hazy smokey air everywhere I could see. ‘tis the time they burn slash piles … why not mechanically get rid of these concentrated messes instead of putting them into the air? Or just leave them to recycle naturally; slash piles are not part of the natural order, nor is burning them.

    So with lousy air, it seemed a good idea to go low over the forest and shoot light and shadow like the photo enclosed tonight; I was less than a thousand feet over the forest and thus very little air to shoot through so I got nice bright photos. Not sure exactly where I was when I shot it, but it was west of Rogers lake and a lot of roads in the forest there; maybe a development of some kind. Anyhow, it was fun to be in the air and going low to get shots like this.

    A new week underway … enjoy the beauty around you wherever you are … it is there, just look for it.

    So each one to his wish, and as for me,
    I sit tonight and wait
    To find the answers to my soul in me,
    And in the beauty of the sky and sea.

    Baby Boomer Hippies
    Baby Boomer Blues
    By Tommy Acosta
    If you are a Baby Boomer and are reading this, STOP right now and click off the page because it’s one of the most depressing things I have ever written. But if you are in the mood to wallow in darkness and self-pity, read on. Baby Boomers, what happened? Has time so betrayed us, now, that we are but a decade or two away from finishing our stay here on this planet? What happened to those of us who grew our hair, protested against the unjust wars of our time and dominated three decades with the best music ever made and played? Looking back at videos of us at concerts, rocking to the Beatles, Stones, Yes, Prince, The Who, Metallica, Cream, Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Beach Boys, Kiss, etc., we look at ourselves and we are fat, old, or bald. Sickness racks us. Body parts are failing, and we are getting closer and closer to our expiration date. We had dreams. We thought we would bring peace to the world. We marched in great numbers on Washington against the killing war in Viet Nam. We wanted to bring an end to evil. And we failed. Miserably. Read more→
