Attached are some pictures I took last week on an evening flight around South Florida in my Kolb MK III Xtra. Flight time was 2 hours and I burned about 7 gallons of gas.

Here's a few for those of you who live where it's always green, or alternating green and brown. Around here it'll be white before too long, but tonight was THE evening to go flying...

Great Pictures! Guys.
Mike,
I had a bunch of those White Egrets nesting over a street from me in a big bush tree.
The constant clucking day and night can drive you crazy.
The people that owned the tree cut it down to the trunk so the birds would not come back next year....but they are pretty....just not in your backyard....LOL
.
Dana,
I guess we know what happens on runway 32 when people have engine problems at your airport.
Its Under the bridge and look for shallow water to ditch....perhaps life vests are more important than parachutes for you guys.....LOL
Awesome pics guys keep it up....I'm loving it and it is inspiring me to hurry up with my UltraStar so I can make my own contributions.
Heres home base, Lake Elsinore, CA from my Grob 109 motorglider in the mean time.
