After seeing somebodies Highlight of my day thread I was thinking I had some nice pics from a plane.

From a plane is one of the best places to take some cool pics...

Hopefully this thread can break up the monoanity (sp?) of all the political threads...ENJOY!!! :dthumb:

All of these pics were takin off a DC9 plane while flying over Lake Erie coming back from PA about a year ago...

Most of your Rite Aid/Meijer/CVS' or any place that has one of those Kodak things can print off a good sized pic for you. They can take in digital and/or paper pics...

Here are some from Silver Lake Sand Dunes just off Lake Michigan

Here's some of mine from a bike trip this year. Not form a plane, not too spectacular, but damn do I wish I was there in the warm sunshine right now.

They're all good! Not everybody can do the Ace style trips!! :lol:

I love the dunes...they rock!! I took my stock 4x4 ranger there and it did really well. Yep, it took Test Hill like a champ, so it's all good.

Here's some pics of me in my Ranger and a pic of a school bus!!! :dthumb:

The last pic was looking down from Test Hill

For those of you that don't know...Test Hill is the biggest hill at Silver Lake. When you get to the bottom of the hill you have to nail the throttle to the floor and back off right before the top. Too soon and you don't make it up. Too late and you go soaring over the top and it hurts!!!

Here's a pic of the Ranger makin it to the top!! Believe me I got the pedal to the floor in some 4x4 action...

Then after you make it up Test Hill you go over some nice hills and then over Drop off cliff...I went over that and it was amazing...nuttin like blowin over the top of a sand hill and get totally air born in a truck!!

The best thing about test hill and drop off cliff...you are heading toward the hill and you see nuttin but sand...then you hit the hill and see nuttin but sky, go over the top and you see nuttin but sand!!

Pic 4 & 5 gives you a better idea of how high test hill is..

[Gas Man]

[Gas Man]

Holy sheep sh!t batman! I go to the dunes every year! They totally rock! I will have to scan in the pic of my 76 F-250 conquering the dunes and put it here - no digital pics of the dunes unfortunately.

Nice pics all.

Yeah Shutterfly is a good place to go for pics.

The dunes ROCK!! Get the pics up man!!!

 

[Gas Man]

My question is when are we going to get a WOS trip over to the dunes? That would be kick as$ - everyone ride and someone trail with a truck or something. We should pose that as a question at the next meeting for next year when the sun reappears in the enchanted mitten...

I love the dunes...the last time I went there (those pics) I followed my uncle up there and stayed in a tent outside his camper. It was desent!!! I'd go again for sure!! Take the new lease FX4 up there!!!!
