Quick Flight to Arlington

I'm working very hard at trying to take great photos through the curved canopy of our plane. It really takes some finesse to avoid the wing, the propeller, and the windshield frame ... all while keeping the camera steady through engine hum and turbulence.  This is such a great example of it's ALL about the JOURNEY! hehe!  I love my life!

Steve is going over his pre-flight list ... it looks sorta small, doesn't it?

Beautiful Mt. Rainier in the background. As soon as we climb altitude over our local airport, we can see Mount Rainier and Mount Baker and even downtown Seattle when conditions are clear. 

Snow dusted Cascade Mountain range. Incredible views all the way around ...

Today's flight was a quick one. We landed at the Arlington Airport to pick up a package. This is our shadow scooting across the grass field.

Ha! Here I am ... One of the special features of the RV7 is that we can sit side-by-side, rather than tandem. 

Another swooping s-curve over Arlington.  Everything looks so completely different from the sky! Especially distance ... from way up top, everything is much much closer than I thought.

Home sweet home. The San Juan Islands ...

Really, we have it pretty darned good!
