    Some photos from my holiday...

    Well, just thought I'd share some photos from my latest camping holiday with a difference. I hope that some people enjoy some of the views! The Southwest USA is a beautiful part of the world. A few pictures from out trip; cut down from a few thousand!


    Late landing into Camarillo in the 172RG


    "The Beast" (C182T) at Oceano


    Oceano


    Biplane Rides!


    Kern Valley


    Kern Valley


    70s interior. Very tasteful.


    We could see the ground on the other side...




    Cessna, and Spaceship.


    Death Valley


    I should point out that the bag was very light, and I was carrying the heavy stuff!










    Quite a sunset at Payson, AZ.

    Tame crow.




    Pride Rock.






    Mono Lake


    Home Sweet Home


    The Kitchen!


    The film crew - shooting Monsterquest for the History Channel! We joined them for a couple of days and let them film from our plane; in return we got hotel and meals!

    Glory glory!




    Shelter Cove. Sadly the rowdy Wednesday night Steak Night at the club had been closed down since we were last here, due to an excess of rowdiness.


    :shock:


    I think they need to change the sign.








    That's the hotel front door! I love the USA.

    Re: Some photos from my holiday...

    Thanks everyone for your kind comments! I am indeed the pilot in question

    Oh, and the dam is the Glen Canyon dam rather than the Hoover; the Hoover is below the Grand Canyon near Vegas, and the Glen Canyon is at the top of the Grand Canyon, holding back Lake Powell. They do look rather the same, though!
