Get the warmies ready...

 

 

 On a recent flight headed north we encountered this substance coating some of the peaks. All three of us shuddered a little, then nudged the heater control towards hot. Getting close to winter in these parts!

Is it Winter?

Almost! This was from Spring, but tune in next time for what it looks like now...

Happy Monday!

It's a great day here, hope yours is t-o-o!

Dutch Harbor Part 2

 Well you see Jr., the runway is behind that hill...

 Crossing Hog Island on final to runway 12

There's the spot we're looking for!

Back to sharing the view!

Went on trip to Dutch Harbor, alternately called Unalaska. A scenic place to be when the weather is nice. Takes a while to fly this route though. About three hours one way from Anchorage. Fairly common to see boats and barges as we get closer.

Yes, On Purpose!

 

I just got bored! C'mon like you never thought about doing this?

The Milk Run

All in a day's work, so they say.

Looky Here

Isn't this type of cloud formation the coolest thing? Glad I had a camera that day!

Quick Question?

Boys, what happens when water gets cold? Say in the neighborhood of 30 below? What's that? It freezes and busts things? I will let the Ignorant Flight Engineer know...oh wait he already figured it out, and the hard way too it looks like!

A Little Sunshine

During a hitch on the Slope, about Thanksgiving time. Got to see some Light, just when we needed it most.

A Quick Road Trip

Had the truck in Anchorage for about two weeks this Fall, would have been longer but the schedule changed again and we decided to take the Grinch home for the season. Look at the top picture an you'll notice that the tree frost is only on one side of the road. Pretty cool I thought, and it was unseasonably warm to boot, as noted by my artistic capturing of the temp. Further down the road it got colder, and the sun did not bless this stretch as long so the frost crept back in. All in all a nice quick trip.

Happy Valentines Day!

Just would not be proper if I missed the opportunity to tell you happy Valentines Day! Love You!
...

Happy Anniversary!

To my Pumpkin, on one of our many Anniversaries.
They say flying the heavy jets going trans oceanic that there are times when all you see is the mammoth curve of the horizon that our Earth holds. As far as the eye can see, imagine that! Now with that vision hear this: I love you more than that horizon could ever hold. And I Always will.
