Drove out to Hemet today to fly a sail plane. Stopped at the Look Out Road House, Ortega Highway, Cleveland National Forest. This is overlooking Lake Elsinore. I used to do some skydiving in the right side of the pic back in...Well it was a long time ago.

I love that road, took care of a Girl Scout camp up there in the late 70's.

QUOTE(bernbomb914 @ Nov 22 2006, 06:49 PM)  tell us about the sail plane flight Bernie I used to fly Sailplanes back in my skydiving days. If it was too windy to jump, I just walked across the field and flew for as long as I could stay up. I decided to take it up again since I retired. It's a very relaxing and satisfying type of flying. Cheers, Elliot |

Choices:
Should I jump out of a perfectly good airplane or just get into one without a motor? You are truly a 914 kinda guy. Get a job before you hurt yourself.

QUOTE(Elliot Cannon @ Nov 22 2006, 06:47 PM) La Pantera Negra. Great pics ! Wheenever we have a run over the Ortega, seems like the view get lost. Love the lookout, used to wine ane /dine there back in the '80's. Great place for a quiet lunch. They have patio seating on the other side. Thanks for sharing... |
