It's never been more crucial to know your farmer. The last oil tankers out of #StraitOfHormuz have reached their destinations, and the crunch begins, with oil shortages expected in the US by July. #RogueValley #JacksonCountyOR

Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport KMFR → Roseburg Regional KRBG

A calm day with barely any wind. In the evening, a few hot air balloons took to the sky. Just before sunset, I touched down in Roseburg with the trusty Cessna 172.

This leg again? Yep, another short test flight, in the Cirrus Vision Jet again. But the real focus? Testing the Map Enhancement Plugin for X-Plane. The scenery looks so much better with it!

Next stop? Not sure yet. But Portland, OR is just 200 nautical miles away! Rumor has it there are some amazing breweries there…

Back in California for a short test flight in the Vision Jet. The next flight will take me further to the north, promise!

California is now behind me; Medford is the first stop in Oregon. With the King Air, the 70 miles passed in no time at all, there was barely enough time to snap a few photos.

Beautiful afternoon in Southern Oregon’s #RogueValley today. But it is February and it really shouldn’t look like this or be over 60 degrees. For #SouthernOregon this is the winter that wasn’t, and that is concerning. I’m really worried about what summer fire season will bring with our rainfall totals and snow pack well below normal. #Oregon #Winter #Climate

Hundreds of young people across the Rogue Valley rally for a cause, push passage of Oregon bill that targets polluters

Hundreds of high schoolers from around the Rogue Valley participated in a nationwide walkout on Friday to protest climate change and urge Oregon elected officials to pass legislation requiring significant polluters to “take accountability for the damage they have caused to climate and communities.”

View looking south across Southern Oregon’s #RogueValley this Autumn afternoon. A real change from recent foggy days. Bright, sunny and brisk. Robins are feasting on our Madrone tree berries and making a pleasant racket… #Oregon #PNW #SouthernOregon #CountryLife
Morning cloud resting peacefully in southern Oregon’s #RogueValley. Wet, rainy day ahead. Much needed moisture. Love the Fall. My favorite season. #Oregon #PNW #SkyScape. #Nature
