Yosemite yesteryear

Postby H_PAUL » Wed Feb 25, 2015 10:11 pm

Howdy all,

I took this Yosemite Valley pic a few years ago.............and it if you do some research, quite a few actors in the early Hollywood years etc
loved to fly into this area and enjoy it's majestic surroundings..........
There's even a nine hole golf course nearby.
Wawona was a favorite..........

With ROF screenies I composed this scene.............now my desktop background

I spend a lot of time, (many years!), in the Flight Sims touring Cal Central Valley, over the Sierra Nevada Mountains, including Yosemite, into the length of Owen's Valley, another popular Hollywood filming location!

My favourite touring areas, in my little piston props!
