    Yes. We have been through Kanab on a number of occasions. Didn't make it to the sanctuary. Had a killer Navajo Taco at Nedra's Too. I did not know until we visited Kanab that quite a number of older westerns were filmed in the around Kanab. Beautiful country side.

    I did some volunteer work at Best Friends a few years ago...part of the tour package also included Bryce and Zion hikes. Wonderful time!

    I might sponsor a horse at Best Friends sometime this year......

    @Pilotcld

    Things I'd love to see....

    The sun or rise/set above the cloud deck.
    The moon in a similar position, especially during daylight.
    Anything from cruising altitude over the western deserts. Bonus points for anything over Nevada.

    Oh yeah, and ET spacecraft. But, you can PM those.

    You should make a coffee table style graphic book of what your days are like. Make it available over e-print on demand. You never know...

    I love that scripture.
    And to that I respond, “Ask and he shall receive”

    My guess is this could’ve been formed from a glacier thousands of years ago as it made its way through this mountain pass? This is in between Colorado and Utah somewhere.

    Here you can see the slant of darkness caused by the curvature of the earth as the sun sets over Canada

    Last but not least, the Pacific Ocean south of Las Angeles

    All just amazing! So few humans ever get to see the things you see.

    Thank you!
    This is one reason why I love my “job” so much. Tonight was rough because we had to maneuver around a bunch of thunderstorms, but generally I get to look out the window in awe of our planet :). Lemme search for a minute and see if I can find a sunrise that a friend of mine set. So far nothing over Nevada, but I will try my best :)

    It's that time of year. I live about ten miles west of the runways for the north approach into DEN. I can see them (airliners) go into holding patterns when the cells move onto the airport area, especially at twilight. Watching the skies here, day or night, is one of my favorite things.

    Oh nice!! You get to see a wide variety of planes then! Denver is a good airport for plane spotting! One of my favorite things is watching planes coming in and creating the “stairway” look into the airport as they descent through the approach altitudes

    I believe in UFOs. I totally accept that people see things in the sky that they can't identify. However, I also realize that if we were to overlay a heat map of UFO sightings against a map of known Air Force facilities.....

    seriously tho. I’d believe it. I personally think that if we believe the universe to have No ending, we would be silly to think we are the only habitable planet in the universe. But that’s just me.

    The skies here are indeed very full. Buckley AFB, immediately south, has a couple of fighter squadrons. All kinds of cargo airplanes. Military helicopters of all sort. Lots of general avaiation at DEN too.

    I am close enough to see that "staircase" even in the daylight. At night it almost looks like cars on a hill, 5- 20 planes at a time, forming at times two distinct parallel paths. Takeoffs look the same, only in reverse. It becomes easy to visualize what the pilots and air traffic control are doing, and the seperation by both distance and altitude is fascinating to watch. It's possible to even put ATC on the scanner and watch it happen. Very cool. Kudos to all of you. It's like watching a slow motion clock.

    Can't really argue that one way or the other. Human lifetimes are just a flash. The distances to any of those planets and the resultant physics issues causes us, for all practical purposes, to experience our universe as if we are it. Personally, I am open to consider any evidence one has to offer on any subject. For ETs inside lunar distance, I need at least a craft (or wreckage), and hopefully a pilot, deceased or still living.
