Plane Pr0n on a Winter’s Day

I had to go to Tehachapi for a doctor’s appointment today. On the way home I had to stop in Mojave. I take the Z612 along with me most of the time, now a days. With the hardware parked at Mojave Airport, it is good thing to do. One of those Ex Air Canada birds [...]

Morning in The Antelope Valley

My winter mornings are like this. We have haze due to the rainwater that is in the low areas along the roads and in Rogers Dry? Lake. But there is still some snow on the Tehachapi Mountains. These were taken at about 0700 on 30 January.
Enjoy!
And for Kath, it was about 34 degrees outside!

U-2 Reconnaissance Jets Still Flying

I came across an article over on Military.com and thought it should be shared as widely as possible.  It seems that Congress had a decent thought for a change and has directed the USAF to delay the retirement of its U-2 reconnaissance jets for a while longer.  They’re still great jets with over 100 projected [...]

Monday started with a trip up to Carrol Shelby’s place in the hopes of a meal in his diner.  Sadly, it’s been closed for a few [...]

Archive Video A Day – 25 November 2009 – Gear Down at Mach 3.2

Hopefully, this short video from a while back might at least partially redeem me
I’ve said before that I’m an associate member of the Road Runners Internationale, but it’s been a while.  I missed their [...]

Cal City, Antelope Valley, Tehachipi Mountains and such

Here are a few from today.  After I dropped the Missus off in Palmdale, I stopped by the house to get my camera. The house was already on the card. The Tehachipi shot was from north of town. I took a short trip up to Ridgecrest and the Naval Air Weapons Center. The other two [...]

Picture A Day – 12 January 2009

Las Vegas.
The image today in people’s heads usually revolves around mega casino resorts and neon lights with a pyramid next to a castle, a sailing ship battle, and fountains choreographed to music all on one stretch of road barely six miles long. For those willing to look, signs of older times and [...]

Road Trip in the HHR

Saturday was a day of traveling for Cindy, her mom, her niece, and yours truly. Vegas may be a great place, don’t get me wrong, but sometimes you just want to get away. We loaded up into the HHR for a trip up north in search of fun and all and we surely [...]

The World Record That Will Never Be Broken

It was one heck of a week between work and the Road Runners Internationale reunion and yes, the blog has suffered. I should be back to my normal posting now, starting with this .
One of the Road Runners who spoke at the reunion was Brigadier General (retired) Dennis Sullivan. Gen. Sullivan [...]

Apologies For Slow Posting

My apologies for the slow posting of late. I have been working on a series of posts which are taking much more time than I had thought along with attending a reunion for a group of guys of which I am an associate member. I’ve been having a great time and I appreciate [...]
