Today's flight was, how shall I say it, well...BUMPY !!!
Despite a golden day with light and variable winds at ground level,
we were being tossed around over the Pocono mountains at
about 3,000 feet.  Regardless, the flight was memorable and the day
was enjoyed immensely.  Oh, and I managed to shoot
several aerial photos as well.

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