Kelly,
I couldn't have said that better myself. I could
just about visualise the imagery.

Yesterday morn, I flew from Sarasota Fl (SRQ)
to Daytona Beach (DAB), which was 155 miles in 45 miniutes. Had a
nice tailwind. Stayed at 3500 ft and really enjoyed the view.
Stopped at Lynch FBO, the best place to stop at Daytona Beach, as they do
not charge a parking fee and 110LL is 3.20/gal.
My old friend picked
me up and we spent a few hours at his home, then drove his newly restored
Triumph back to the airfield. I gave him his first airplane
ride and he really enjoyed it. He has a fear of heights, so has been
reluctant until now.
Flew into the sun and wind coming home, climbed
over 5000 ft to get over some clouds, but was usually at 4500 ft. The
view of the sunsetting over the Gulf of Mexico was so breathtaking, I didn't
want to hurry home.
Three more hours on the hobbs, burned 20 gallons
of mogas. Heavenly day.
