This morning on Folly, surfers waiting for the change in tide and watching the sunrise.
Has me waxing a bit poetic this AM, as an engineer spent my whole life tearing em down to build them back bigger, stronger, faster .. thinking maybe sometimes it wasn't the best idea.. They are going to tear down this pier head and fishing area in October, 25 years is all she is good for, concrete structure coming bigger and better, less unique...
Right there is a visual of the worst landing I ever made. I was flying a Spam Can (Cessna 152), and I thoughtlessly followed a private Gulfstream without waiting long enough. The air was perfectly clear.
As I reached about 10ft altitude, the vortexes caused vacuum over my wings, and the nose dropped instantly. I dunno how the bloody hell the prop did not hit the concrete, because the entire plane bounced up off the dinky little nose wheel. Up I went, and down on all three wheels.
WHEW. I had to change my shorts. And my asshole had bitten a washer out of the pilot's seat. But no damage to the plane.
Well, I had it all typed out and went to enter it... and missed. Here goes again:
That same runway is where I made my absolute best landing. Same aerioplane. I had taken my mother up for a fun flight, and a windstorm blew up. Winds were exactly sideways to the runway at 55Kts. This is really difficult when you are flying a motorized Spam can. They closely resemble kites or oak leaves in wind.
Normal landing speed is 46kts. In order to keep the plane from flipping over, I had to fly it to the ground. I came in at 85Kts, and tipped the plane tilty until my left wing was about a foot or less from the ground when the left wheel touched.
Had to hold the ailerons in the full left bank position while I eeeeased off on the throttle. Took me about 3/4 mile before all the wheels were down. Perfect landing.
FYI "Control Z" (Command Z - on Mac) will usually 'undo' what just 'happened' if for some reason you highlighted and hit another key and 'erased' everything. It 'backs' up each iteration 'saved' in memory by the computer, meaning 'keep tapping Control Z' til it comes back.

Nice moon rising over the mountain tonight. If only the picture could convey the sound of the river in the background while the frogs lay down a continuous beat and the owl hoots out the lead vocals.

Eastern bluebird today. This pic comes with a sad story. Today a falcon swooped down and caught one of the bluebirds and flew away with it. Was sad to see that but at least it was nature. It would have been much sadder if it were hit by a car or something. They will be heading South any day now.
I think the reason they are here is to feed someone else. All of us are but humans decided they were better than that and created cemetree's. Dumbfucks.
Fun fact though, rainbows always have the same angle so the closer you get it won't matter it will still have the same amount of arc. You would need a very wide lens to capture the full arc.
