Your picture is a great prod for my chemo-brain; Did you know that all Bushpilots learn very quickly to determine the wind's direction and approximate velocity by looking at the pattern of waves on a body of water? I flew all over Alaska on 'wheels and floats'. Knowing wind direction and velocity was a primary need to all landing Bushpilots.

My complements again on your photography skills.

This is a shot I took of a B-36 bomber at the boneyard in Tucson, AZ. Often affectionately nicknamed the "aluminum overcast." This thing is definitely huge. It had a wingspan of 230 feet and a range of nearly 10,000 miles.

I remember when the B-36's at Walker AFB near Roswell went on alert, and we're readying for take off! The ground and air rumbled, even quite a distance away. Full power and one after the other, seemed like forever! Power and sound of freedom!

These guys do this every week in St. Augustine. Their costumes are as real as you can get, and they pay for them their selves. I was burning up while taking the pics, can't imagine how hot they were in all that wool. Taken a few years ago.

Starts at the fort on the bay front, and ends at the town square.

Sure is. I love St. Augustine, I lived there for 3 years before moving 20 miles south to Palm Coast. I could walk to the fort in 15 minutes.

That’s what my Grandson said!
I got him one last Christmas.
Edit - He just graduated from Middle School.
High School straight ahead!

Thank you very much.

I'll bet being a bush pilot would be exhilarating to say the least.
