Omg that's beautiful.

This isn't, but it's one of the few times a fire at an airport isn't a bad thing. Fire crew practice at O'Hare:

Good thing after the 'almost' disaster last year.
Safe travels.

It's Friday. The booze is free in FC so I'm gonna be the most belligerent passenger by the time I get back to Newark later.

So, what whets your tongue today Augustus?
Whisky or Cognac?

a reply to: TNMockingbird


They just changed the beer menu to the fall seasonal one so I went with Sam Adams October Fest and then a Blue Point Toasted Lager. It almost makes air travel tolerable.

100% PROOF OF CHEMTRAILS!!!!!!



See that dark stripe in the middle of this fuzzy shot? Yeah? That's a chemtrail shadow coming from our plane which I was on otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get you 100% proof of their existence. Our aircraft is obviously in the process of chemtrailing the bejeezeus out of Lake Michigan. Why? I don't know. But they obviously deserved it. Oh, and they served deep dish pizza for lunch. It tasted like cardboard, or was it chemtrail. I gave you the absolute proof, you decide.

After we that we passed over the Ford Proving grounds. What do the prove there? Probably that chemtrails are 100% true.

Some more crap for everyone to dismiss.

See that long spit of land in the center right sticking into the Great Salt Lake?



That's Promontory Point where the transcontinental railroad did not meet as is commonly misunderstood. They actually met about 20 miles north in the right foreground at Promontory Summit after using Eharmony.

And since I'm flying into Portland here's the obligatory photo of Mt. Hood, this time with the sun setting on it's western slope:

Mt. Hood is a bucket list destination of mine.
Thanks for the pictures.
Occasionally my brother and his family travel there and share some pics with me.
Always a beautiful backdrop!

Would that be with or without the parachute?!

a reply to: TNMockingbird


You can use a parachute in honor of D.B. Cooper.

If it were in honor of DBCowboy it would be sans parachute.

If people look really close in the upper right they can see your house, it's the one with rainbows and pixie dust shooting out of the top.
