High water!

 The State is releasing tons of water into the Jordan River from Utah lake due to last year and this year's excessive snowpack.  As a result, the river is raging!

Water on the trail near Gardner Village.

I don't think I've ever seen the river this full or running this fast.

Full!

Pausing to film the TRAX train passing over the bridge.

Pile-O-nuggets.

Despite being almost 13(!), he still loves his chicken nuggets!

He knew I was taking this picture, he's really not sad at all. :)

100%!

 

Yep.

Drone Academy practicing.

Since Altair joined the CAP as a senior member, she's been tasked with helping with the Drone Academy training for the cadets.  Part of this is flying any kind of drone for 4 hours.(!)  She got about 30 minutes in Saturday despite the windy conditions. 

Getting ready to fly.  He was acting like a butt.

First try.

Flying!

He brought his RC airplane and flew it too.

Go Navy!

WOW!

1/32nd scale amazingness!

I started on the Tamiya 1/32 scale Vought F4 "Birdcage" Corsair last weekend. Whoa.  The detail is insane!

100% stock, no aftermarket parts in the cockpit.  Wow!

Another holiday, another reason to eat some beef!

Valenitne's Day is pretty low key around here after 22 years.  I did however make a delicious Prime Rib for the occasion.

100% USDA prime beef from Costco!

Not shown, the delicious pre-dinner spinach salad withe blue cheese crumbles and dressing. Yum!

 

First Sergeant, report!

 He is now in charge of Bravo Flight.

Senior Cadet Sponsor.

Altair has now joined the Civil Air Patrol as a Cadet Sponsor to Skyler.  She's always willing to help out when needed, I'm just a little concerned she doesn't have the time to spare.

Complete with a Senior Member uniform!
