Browns Seaplane Base, Pt I
Browns is a nice place to while away an afternoon, just watching. The water takeoffs and landings, plus the land planes from the adjacent airport make for some great scenery. Every time I go there, the people greet me in a friendly manner, welcome me to sit on the benches and porch swing out back and there is almost always several pilots relaxing and talking about various airports and such...
I can't think of a much calmer place, which is surprising considering it's an airport. :)
Today, some guy bought his seven year old a flight in one of the resident Cubs. I would think a kid that young would freak without his parents, but he seemed ok with it...
These are with my phone, so they aren't too great...
