Wow, what a gorgeous day yesterday. I’m sorry I didn’t have my camera with me. I was feeling a little out of sorts when I headed to the airport where I had a plane reserved for 17:00. I decided I was just going to do some takeoffs and landings and call it a day, but when I got in the plane and got airborne it was too nice to cut it that short. I did a few short field and soft field takeoffs and landings and then I headed northeast to look at the leaves. It was 27°C, winds 100@05, altimeter 30.38, and smooth as glass. It looks like the colors will peak in the next week around here, but they were still pretty impressive. This was one of those days when you realize what a privilege it is to be a pilot.
