Was a beautiful day in the Bay Area, so I decided to get a few hours in with the USCG Cessna.  Wonderful trip.


Went by the Golden Gate, nothing happening

Turned in and headed towards Napa to get a glimpse of the grape vines, they seem to be turning out nice

Started to head south and got a call to Yosemite, didn't have enough fuel so I stopped at Moffett to fuel up before heading to Yosemite

Topped off and ready to roll...stand by for my trip to Yosemite!

Excellent shots, but that is not a USCG bird.
