I never realized there were so many bugs at 17,000 feet until I looked at some of those pictures through the windscreen.

Cool pics, but you know Shelby, you wouldn't have that reflection problem in the pictures if you'd roll the damn window down...sheesh!

You gotta watch out when you open the windows... you never know what will happen.

When I had the flight club a couple of members came in and rented a plane for a couple of hours. They came back covered with white dust and asked for some cleaning supplies to clean out the cockpit. Come to find out, they had taken one of the guys Grandfather's ashes and were going to spread them over an area in the mountains that his Granddad loved. Well, they opened the window and tried to scatter the ashes. The negative pressure outside the plane blew the ashes back in and all over the place.

Needless to say I never rented them a plane again.

I knew you were going, too. I wish I had remembered that I had these photos. I would have posted them before you left.

You probably recognize the lake. Did you have a good time?

it was a great time, my parents took me and 4 other friends basically free (just had to pay lift tickets and ski rentals) we stayed in the river run village, i'm not sure if you know the keystone area but its right at the bottom of the main lifts

the lake you are talking about, is it the one in keystone village? or is that a different one... i'm pretty sure i remember one more

are you a skiier?

(go ahead and answer in seperate posts IF YOU WISH)

Actually, I need to apologize and correct myself. I just took a closer look ath the photo. That is Vail, not Dillon. The highway running alongside the lake is I-70. You can see the golf course that Gerald Ford used to play at along the highway.

Part 2...

Nope - not a skier any more. Used to ski when I first moved out here but the back started giving me problems. Several years of therapy have made the pain a non issue (although it is always somewhat there,) but I am reluctant to take a chance.

we almost went to vail just for fun but decided to go to breckinridge for an afternoon instead
