Sounds good. Benton is great airport to fuel up before heading to Shasta Lake, then Ashland, Oregon. There were low ceilings last trip so I stopped at Red Bluff instead. Will PM when I get a firm schedule! Thanks!

Happy Memorial Day.

I love riding the 50 mile bike path along the ocean near Los Angeles. I rode from Rat Beach, Palos Verdes to Muscle Beach, Venice. Arnold Schwarzenegger started his film career pumping iron at Muscle Beach. It's a place everyone who is interested in Hollywood should visit.


Redondo Pier and King Harbor:


Muscle Beach, Venice. Getting ready for a lifting contest. Look at the size of that guy's arm?

Looks like a VFR weather delay getting out of L.A.

Mount Shasta:



One of the many lakes in California:




Sacramento Delta. Unlimited seaplane potential!




Now, time to change engine oil and think about scheduling an annual inspection. Big mahalo to all who helped me along the way! Specially backcountrypilot.org for networking this unreal group of people!
