After hiking Golden Canyon, we hit Badwater for a few while the sun was still shining.
On our way back to Texas Springs Campground, the moon had started ascending the sky and was well worth ending the year with.

Just warming up for the days ahead as I walked around Dody’s home for interesting views from Panorama Park as the sun prepared to go and the night crawled in slowly.

I was fortunate to join the Sailors this year for Christmas and be able to enjoy the sunny skies of California instead of the dreary Northeastern winter! Here is to a happy new year ya’ll!
I’ve got the power

In an interesting showcase of power, precision and very well done marketing, the RI air show had, according to the people I saw, a bigger than thou crowd. Whatever the reason was, one can’t deny the effort put into making airplanes and how sophisticated it could get these days.
Tip of the hat for the L-39 demo. I liked it sleek lines, slim fuselage and nimble take off. If I ever were to pick an air plane, it would be the L-39. It reminded me of the (1983-1991)E30 M3 which is my favorite car ever!
On the other hand,the Raptor and the Viper are truly the Lamborghinis of the sky. If you ever decide to get a Lamborghini Reventon, the Raptor should be on your garage list. Seriously, it was a breath taking demo.It was as if I watched Reventon side by side with the Gallardo on a track!
Blue Angels,Canadian Snow birds, John Klatt, Sean Tucker ,Ed Hamill, The Horsemen and others performed an endless series of enjoyable maneuvers.
I bet the rush of adrenaline on that day was phenomenal.
Oh, by the way; Tax payers: Don’t forget the tips!
Enjoy the photos and the videos!

The Silent Camera
Always fascinated by the odds of the world we live in, I keep my camera at close range all the time just to capture anything my eyes see and like.
This blog will document journeys to places unknown(to this fella at least) and show you around through his eyes.
My long term goal is to visit all of the 392 national parks in the United States and hopefully many more interesting places.I hope you like how I see our world.
Feel free to send me your shouts & murmurs either by leaving a comment or through the contact page.
Ciao!
