I have a Whopper of a Picture Post for all of you on this overcast day.
There was an approaching front from the west, but the air was relatively smooth and the rain held off until dark. (33) photos await your perusal of Springtime beauty, so I hope you enjoy this selection from central & northern New Jersey.

As always, I hope you enjoy the view from above !!!

I hope you've enjoyed these photos as much as I have enjoyed shooting them. And I hope my next Highlight Update arrives sooner than this update did. The winter was long, cold, snowy and windy, but brighter, warmer and more soothing days are ahead of us now.

See you after the next flight...
