To the Beach Batman!!!

Let's go fly a kite... ok not really but that would be something you do at the beach. What would you do with miles of sand though? Well you can fly to an airport on the beach. That's what I did. I took off from Aspen and went straight for Blanding Municipal Airport in the State of Utah. It's my first time Landing in this state I believe but hopefully not my last. I have to admit, the landing was a little tricky. When I first spotted the runway I thought it was too small even for my plane. It turns out that miles of sand like that make things look smaller and closer than they really are. Here are some photos of the leg. I won't be here long however, I want to make it to Las Vegas by tonight to get a little gambling in.

Aspen. Nice place. Got a bit of skiing in this morning before heading out.
