Those are good, Eddie! The harbor reminds me of a trip we took with our kids in the early '80s, when the Spruce Goose was there in the "dome". Time "flies"!

Let's see if I can get these pics in correctly.
I had the week off so I visited my mom in Surprise, AZ. I got the opportunity to fly with Desertfox4 and chat some more with Desertfox1. Always a pleasure, both of them.
I won't run on but here are some nice shots. First time in the backcountry! I dropped in on Curt who I have previously mentioned I had introduced to the Kitfox by taking him up. He was
out Powered Parasailing so he talked me in. I may not have done it without that support so Thanks Curt. Im having trouble getting excited about editing video so its coming but not today.

Nice Eddie! Way to get those tires dirty! If planes had feelings it would be like putting their those in the sand!!

Hope all of you have had a great Thanksgiving in light of the restrictions and all. Ive put together a montage of clips from flying I did this past week. Dang thing still 21min long and it will likely put you to sleep so maybe you'll want to save it for bedtime. Lot's of solo footage and some with my brother and with my 82 year old mom who was a Civil Air Patrol member back in her 30s. Some flying with DesertFox4 and I got an opportunity to visit with DesertFox1. Always enjoy the time with fellow Kitfox flyers. I did my first off airport landing at Salton Sea to visit Curt who is looking to buy a Kitfox someday. Glamis Dunes, really called Imperial Sand Dunes, are east of San Diego and run all the way to the Mexico border. I have now officially doubled my flight time from 250hrs PIC to 500hrs. The airplane has now got 260 hours on it now and this trip was uneventful. I think now the bugs must be worked out as I have not seen a lane light come on since the air temp sensor got replaced. A very nice week I must say. Thanks Steve, I couldn't have made the trip to the Dunes without your Decalin and thanks again for the opportunity to fly with you.

Lots of flying packed into that video Eddie. Glad you have worked through the bugs. Midlife Crisis turned out great and I really do love invasion stripes.😎 Come back soon. Lots of beautiful fun places to show you.

These are a couple cool shots I just got from Curt. Pretty nice having friends with new little toys. As I recall it he hadn't used the quad to video anything until this shot. I like it. No audio on the drone.
