This was taken at sunset in Palm Springs. These desert sunsets are really amazing.

Josh and I took my little sister (Anna) on a hike. Although she didn't have enough in her to make it to the top, I took this picture and showed her what she missed. She made it only half way up. This is Multnomah Falls in the Gorge of Oregon. We are about 1,000 feet up at this location.

More pictures of some of the falls here. This is a very small fall before the larger fall...

A dying breed.

Well its official. We are parking all of our CRJ700's. The company blames high fuel prices. I blame the public's unwillingness to pay the actual price of what a ticket should cost, AND the company's unwillingness to charge them that. Oh well. This is a pretty nice jet. Its fast, RELIABLE, fairly comfortable, and fun. Its going to be funny watching all the Jet Queens try to figure out a turbo prop. Shit is going to hit the fan (litteraly). Another thing our company is doing to cut operational costs is putting over 1/3 of all flight attendant back on reserve. Now people who have been here nearly 2 years are back to sitting at home waiting for the phone to ring. This may not sound bad to a flight attendant working for the majors, however regional flight attendants typically spend less than one year on reserve--so this came as a big shocker. Anywho I'm sticking around. This cmpany didn't furlough any flight attendants after 9/11, and I dont think they'll have to now either. :)
