• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Blue Ridge Pkwy Fall Foliage Video Clip

Last Friday the foliage on the Blue Ridge Parkway (BRP) in Central Virginia was supposed to be approaching peak, so I took a little run over that way to check it out. I left N. Chesterfield and headed west on Rte. 60 and took it over to where it intersected with the Parkway, roughly 123 miles. I took it south and ran down to where it intersected with Rte. 501, headed east on it through Lynchburg (where I lived and worked for 12 years), and home. Shot a video with the dash cam that was installed on the Ryker when I got it, but it does loop videos and it overwrote some the journey; still learning to fly that airplane too. This was the longest run to date on the beast - 275 miles.

No audio. I’ve muted the mic because of too much annoying wind noise. It’s a petty neat system, but their customer support is non-existent so no one can tell me where the mic is located so I can cover it up to muffle the noise.

Anyway, here’s the clip.

Local NPR station published a email today announcing the Biltmore has reopened and the city of Asheville is asking tourists to visit. There is progress in parts of western NC, but lots of the BRP is still closed.

That's good news for a change.
