Flight 815 to LA
8/23/00

Aside from Ian’s (and the others) screaming, this flight is beautiful! We’re skirting some thunderstorms in Iowa, & the clouds are beautiful from above. Not to mention the sun setting ahead of us. The hues & textures are mesmerizing: the orange & reds of the horizon contrasting the deep blues & grays of the blanket of clouds beneath. The clouds rise to flat-topped thunderheads on spots, and viewing the lighting from above is quite the experience. I think I’ll sit back, enjoy my coffee & the view. Although 4 beers & coffee … not the best idea. I suppose I’ll have my first lavatory experience soon.
