Snapshots of a trip back from Palm Springs, California (KPSP), to Austin Executive (KEDC). (Photography by Isabel Goyer)
A hundred miles later, the clouds thinned and despite high winds, the ride remained remarkably smooth.[Isabel Goyer]Approaching Midland, Texas, the clouds began to thin and we got occasional glimpses of the ground, some of them geometrical.[Isabel Goyer]The peaks in Guadalupe National Park are spectacular even from 11,000 feet.[Isabel Goyer]Beyond Midland and approaching Junction, Texas, the combination of late afternoon light and a perfectly scattered and even cloud deck led to the most brilliant show of sun rays I’ve ever seen.[Isabel Goyer]Who said there are no straight lines in nature? The West Texas horizon and the perfectly smooth cloud deck say otherwise.[Isabel Goyer]One of the advantages of the gorgeous silver wings on the Cirrus: they get painted the colors of the sky.[Isabel Goyer]Nearing Austin, this was my welcome home. Who could ask for more?
