wings to fly

Photobucket

I've been away.

An impromptu trip. All along the way, the trees were in fine color, but I was awe-struck by the view of the city.

Was it the elevation, the altitude, or simply the eminence of the vantage point? Made me think of learning to fly. Maybe it was something else.

No matter, it is a good place to do some thinking.

My sister graduated from Pitt. She worked at the Shriners hospital there before moving to Buffalo. Not alot of fall color there yet. I would love to fly over the area and see everything from that perspective.

Not sure where that is but it's very pretty.

It is amazing how small the world became when humans learned how to fly.

It would be easy to slip into a falcon persona, wouldn't it?

Lovely photos of somewhere I've never been.
