I took this short film with a Lumix TZ30 camera while standing at the perimeter fence of the southern end of the runway.
On the way to Phoot Camp, our first stop was at "Slab City", an area known as an "RV oasis", due to the thousands of campers that live and move through the area off the grid in the cooler months. Lauren and I had a "Spin Off" with our 360 spinners. Here's the shot from her perspective.

I'm thinking it would be cool to colour match and join them up for a "720" spinner shot.

We got a bit of Sad news in the in box this morning. An old Friend of ours passed on last night. The old friend was a dog named Nixon. many an adventure he had, and never spoke a word of. Some on the other hand more than one or 2 of us know.
He was born some time in 1996 and came to be a Friend to us while we were living in the land of California. He was a bundle of fluff and teeth sharp as tacks, with a penchant for tearing the trash can apart and everything in it. many a day he would be sitting there when I got home from the night shift with the mess he had just made stretching from one end of the house to the other with the innocent look puppies can achieve when they have just eaten Christmas dinner.
On leaving California and moving to Montana, he came with us, and stayed for a while here. he seemed to do well here losing fleas, and slowly losing hot spots which he did not really enjoy, but endured with better grace than I do aching joints on stormy days.
He left here and took some time to see Chicago, and then went back to Cali for a short while before finally coming back here to Kalispell.
It was here he spent the years where he had a good family to watch over him, and to watch over and guard while he waited to move on to another place.
While I know he has moved on and is now able to snack on cheese and bacon as he wishes, with no one to tell him no, he is still going to be missed here in this world, at least until we travel on and find him elsewhere waiting for us.
