    What a great weekend it was; time with friends, some flying, some good food, some neat photos, and lastly just a good feeling being alive … went for a late afternoon walk with a friend today and the air was fresh, wind soughing in the pine trees and heck, life is just good. It is also a good feeling to take into the new week … flying this morning and hope to get some neat shots. Just bought a Canon 6D to use in the cockpit as the 1D-X bodies are a wee bit on the cumbersome side especially with a passenger along. An excellent full frame sensor in a body geared to be small and light and with 20MP you can get good size low noise enlargements. I took this shot of Montezuma’s Well with it on Friday morning.

    Beaver Creek flows from right to left in this photo and if you look closely you can see some of the pueblo ruins left by the Sinagua and maybe a bit of the cliff dwellings … easier in the full size image. You can learn more about this fascinating place at: http://www.nps.gov/moca/planyourvisit/gettingaround.htm . In the dwellings down by the water there is graffiti that goes back to the 1800’s … mercifully  nothing modern … and yes it was a cool bank angle :+)

    20140407_grussing_photoMy friend Charlie Moore sent me some photos that go back to our days in Okinawa that were kind of neat … so here is one of them … the cigarettes are gone, but the smile remains. Thanks Charlie, it sure was a fun tour!

    Enjoy the day, those whom you are fortunate enough to meet and greet … share your joy and a few smiles … it helps make everyone’s day a good one … especially yours.

    Cheers

    To be somewhere alone with you and watch the myriad stars,
    Far golden worlds beyond the noisy earth’s unkindly jars.
    As quietly they sail night’s sea, above the world and you and me.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
