I love the rain when there’s no work to do or activities to be a part of. The attached image is a perfect example of why you should love the rain and all that stuff that goes with it. Because as they say, “No Rain, No Rainbows”. Tonight just before the sun set there was a small break in the clouds and this is what you get.
San Diego Rainbow
Today was my usual day to do the yard work. However, there are some really brilliant blossoms that stand out so much I decided to take you on a little tour of our garden today. I hope you like these.
San Diego; Saturday, February 26th: It was cold and it rained most of the day and into the night.
San Diego; Sunday, February 27th: Morning broke with clear skies and record low temperatures for our corner of the world. The treat/trade off? Snowcapped mountains!
San Diego's Snowcapped Mountains
Stay tuned for the slide show of images captured during my excursion to see this rare phenomenon.
Saturday was a VERY big day for the military’s naval aviation world. Naval Air Station North Island (NASNI) is the birthplace of Naval Aviation and Saturday was the kickoff for a nation wide celebration of their 100 years of flight. NASNI opened their gates and put on a great show of static display aircraft from all eras. Had live bands playing into the evening. Hosted a car show on the tarmac. Opened three of their ships for tours including the aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74).
The location of the open house at NASNI was the perfect place to watch the “Parade Of Flight” that was kicked off by the Blue Angels and wrapped up with a massive 35 plane fly over in formation. Not a typical “air show”. You really got to see a lot of different aircraft though. I’m really glad I put in the effort and time to see this from this location. From the vantage point I selected I was even treated to a fly-by of an osprey, or fishing eagle. I hope you enjoy the pictures and will drop me a note to let me know what you think. Thanks!
