Of course, the pictures don't do the flight justice (they never do),
but this year -- once feared to be a real "dud" for fall colors -- has
turned out to be quite beautiful here in Iowa.

Too bad it won't last much longer...


There's a tree in Iowa?

There are lots of trees in Iowa, but they are all big cedars that stay
green until they get covered with snow in the winter. Finding the small
Iowa towns' airports in the dead of winter is fun. Just look down for a
big clump of snow-covered cedars, there'll be a small town hiding
inside the trees. Finding the snow-covered runway against the
snow-covered farmlands around the airport is another story however.
