2 air 005.jpg

Baxter State Park, Maine

I have long dreamed of taking a float plane over Mount Katahdin -- each time I hike it, in fact. This morning I was offered the opportunity to experience it "up close and personal". (For the rest of the "story" click here: http://www.pbase.com/laura_sebastianelli/katahdin_floatplane .)

This image is in response to Thursday's Totally Informal Transglobal Challenge. The theme for September 18, 2008 is "up close and personal".

floats or amphibs that's the way to go
the water looks just about perfect to make a quick takeoff
