Cessna 195 captured by Z 8 / Z180-600
I grab the ThinkTank with my gear every errand after toasting myself in the past. Most times, it gets a free ride, being put back afterwards without ever being unzipped. Then there are those moments when I’m so glad it’s there. This last Saturday, we went into The Hangar for our huckleberry pancakes on a gorgeous, way too warm and dry morning for Montana. We see everything from biz jets to Pientenpol on the ramp, taxing and launching. It’s a marvelous way to start any day for sure. We walked out quite satisfied when we heard that lovely sound, a plane warming up. We looked and there was Mike in his gorgeous 195 in preflight. I walked over and got my gear from the truck and walked over to the ramp. Soon, Mike’s wife joined us as we watched. Before long, he was taxing and on his way north. The golden light (which should be cold and blue this time of year) was perfect for the moment! I made some clicks, enjoyed the company and view and felt truly blessed. And it is I never leave home without it!
