Uinta Sunrise Flight

This morning a friend and I took a sunrise flight over the Uinta Mountains. I'd never flown over them so we decided to do some exploring and enjoy the Fall colors. Despite one camera malfunctioning, I still got some footage to work with from my other camera. It was a gorgeous morning and the Fall colors are peaking at the higher altitudes. Great morning for a flight!

I thought I heard someone go over my house this morning - was on the wrong end of the house to see, though! Beautiful day out here.

**grumble**

My two girls have 2-3 years left in college (wife in grad school and daughter working on undergrad)... When they both graduate, it's a Stearman first, then building SuperSTOL, then Twin Velocity, then full scale DR1 replica.

I may abscond with the 185 for a bit here and there, however. 8) I'll let you know the second it's on Utah dirt! :wink:

Re: Uinta Sunrise Flight

Thanks everyone.

FYI, if any of you have the Ghost HD, a new firmware is available that is supposed to solve the locking up issue and the need to pull the battery to recover it. I downloaded it today. Hopefully it works!
