Having pretty eyes may have helped too (inside joke, that's another story).
So, thanks to curious guy, Tim, we were invited to go along on a helicopter ride -- yippee!
We left Deer Valley Airport, flew over Squaw Peak, ASU, the Kiwanis Catch-a-Wave car show, Lakeshore Dr, South Mountain and back to Deer Valley. Somewhere in there we circled and looked for a bad guy - that's Daniel with the binoculars. Daniel and Steve were my pilots today. PJ and Tim stayed on the ground. Maria and I had the helicopter to ourselves.
We were in the air about an hour. It was very cool.
I have video to sort and make a movie with, that'll take me a little longer but I wanted to post a few pictures of my big city.
We landed at South Mountain for a view of the city.
I think this is ASU's Karsten Golf Course
