    … so this morning it was exercises, grab a large coffee and hit the road to drive down to Prescott and take advantage of an offer to get a ride in and fly an Icon A-5 land/amphibian based airplane. The top photo shows this luxury ship parked in the front lot at Cutter Aviation at Prescott Regional Airport … it is one very cool airplane! The second shot I shot through the open canopy and framed a Gulfstream V that had just come in a little while before I took the shot.

    The shot below I took from the Prescott Valley just west of Mingus Mountain and looking generally ENE. Coming in from the left side is the rim of the Colorado Plateau as it breaks off into the Verde Valley and just below the San Francisco Peaks right of center horizon, you are looking up through Sycamore Canyon. On the horizon from the left is Kendrick Peak and then the San Francisco Peaks and not sure what the formation to the right of that is … maybe Mt. Elden?

    The Icon was surprisingly light on the controls and fun to fly … I do wish we would have had the time to fly down to Lake Roosevelt and do some water landings, but just getting a flight in it was a great experience. I do prefer the long wings and performance of gliders/motorgliders, but this was truly cool!

    Have a beautiful day, share a smile with those you meet and great.

    Cheers,
    Ted

    I bring but this one common thought
    My life has wrought;
    That from the dregs of drear despair
    Still everywhere
    There is a joy I may yet sip—
    ‘Tis comradeship
    With all mankind, the high and low
    I know.

    Compassionate Sedona?
    By Tommy Acosta
    Sedona is known throughout the world as a spiritual destination point where the land and those who live upon it march to the beat of a different drummer. Compassion. Love. Inclusivity and enlightenment are pillars upon which this community is sustained. Yet, something happened a few days ago that made me question if this is really true. I was at dinner at a local restaurant with a fellow community resident, whom I had always thought to be one of the most compassionate people in Sedona. Quite off-handedly my friend asked me how I felt about a city plan to provide safe parking for people who work in Sedona but have to live in their vehicles because they cannot afford the rent to live here, or even in Cottonwood. I said I thought it was a great idea and my friend’s expression went from calmness to shock. “I can’t believe you are telling me that with a straight face,” he gasped, as he dropped his fork on the table. “Do you know what you are saying.” Read more→
