We drove up to Kalamazoo this past weekend and they were the worst in Michigan of all places - definitely not the norm. Honestly, the best we saw were in Indiana near Fort Wayne. The weather this fall just hasn't afforded too many chances to get up and see the foliage... but I also want to get up more for another look soon!<br /><br />I didn't realize you grew up in Ohio. My dad's family is all from the Akron area so I've been there way more times than I can ever count. Things were plenty busy since I was flying to new airports but hopefully next time I visit I'll get to spend a couple more seconds staring down at the ground.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11130510691724323456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417693701650847558.post-2149078804408562792009-10-19T22:13:41.945-04:002009-10-19T22:13:41.945-04:00Great write up!

I've been itching to do a "color tour" with some friends, but snow/rain up by the tip of the "mitten" last weekend nixed those plans, so we will try again this week. If the colors are going in Ohio, I should have no trouble finding some up north here eh?<br /><br />Your pics are great, I went to high school in Cuyahoga Falls, and have been canoeing on the Mohican, thanks for the stroll down memory lane :DMichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02424381735735546894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417693701650847558.post-24370168034333316382009-10-15T10:36:57.084-04:002009-10-15T10:36:57.084-04:00Steven & Gina,

You and I both were up in the air on Sunday. <br /><br />We ended up taking the plane over to Peachtree City, GA from Athens for the Great GA Air Show. <br /><br />Sat in the cool sun for 6 hours and saw some great stuff. <br />A number of F-18's were there and did a couple of low high speed passes. Greeeat noise. Had to put the ear plugs in for the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV-8B_Harrier_II" rel="nofollow">Harrier</a>. Man those things are loud. <br /><br />It's fascinating to me how aviation changes your perspective on seeing the world; what the human can experience through being in the air above the ground. It makes you instantly humble.Zachhttp://www.behindtheyoke.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417693701650847558.post-3841427678263976972009-10-14T08:35:59.404-04:002009-10-14T08:35:59.404-04:00Yup, it was a good day of flying fun.
