Early to Rise






I finally remembered to bring the camera for my flight to work. It is going to be a perfect day. Sorry they are so grainy, but in low light the camera doesn't work too well. It was so nice that I don't mind getting up 20 minutes early to be able to fly.










This is shortly after takeoff and everyone is just starting their day.








The next picture shows that you can see where the river goes. When it's cool, the fog stays near the water. As you can see, the sun is just starting to come up.












It's great to be able to look down on the cars and trucks that usually pass me on the way to work. I drive slow so I can keep my highway mileage around 80 mpg...that's right 80mpg! I have a Honda Insight and by driving 55 mph, I can get that kind of mileage. It's necessary as I drive 50 miles each way to work.





Well, the sun is coming up and I'm ready to land. Gotta put the camera away and pay attention to what I'm doing.



Hope your day is as good as mine started.

Clearly you're not flying U2s for the NSA...

That's for sure. Hey aren't you in Oz? You guys don't have U-2s and NSAs do you?
It's more like a V3 or T1....
