[Robotgroup] Enchanted Rock hike - Thank you!

[brooksdesign]

   Thanks to Don and Sue for carting me around and to PY for picking such a great place to meet. It was the closest thing to a vacation I've had in the last 15 years and getting to hang out with everyone was very special. I just wish PY was sticking around for more special moments.
  I always have lots of great pictures when I go to the Rock and this time was no exeption. I'm still editing and pasting together all of the cool panoramas I got. Fortunatly I had several frames left on my memory card to catch pictures of a wildfire coming over the top of Packsaddle mountain just south of my house on the way home. The photos revieled the exact shape of the tubulance (rotor) on the back side of my favorite Hang Gliding hill. If I can get around to getting a summer pass, I would love to take some of you robotiers up to see the view from way up high.
