Description
Here's the first bit of my trip ... the flight from Seattle, Washington to Redmond, Oregon. It's about 300 miles, and takes about 50 minutes by plane. The window on the flight going down was absolutely horrid, but I wanted you to see what the trip was like, so I'm posting them anyway. I figure a collage will distract you, and you won't notice the poor quality!

Top image: The plane I flew in, sitting on the tarmac at Seattle.
Second image: Lake Washington, Mercer Island, and Bellevue. Planes take off heading North out of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, and in order to head South, they bank fairly steeply as they turn around. This gives passengers on the right-hand side of the plane a great view! (I sat there on purpose.)
Center left: Mount Saint Helens, in Washington. You can clearly see the side that blew out.
Center right: Mount Jefferson, in Oregon.
Second from bottom: Almost to the Redmond airport. Left to right - Mount Bachelor, Three Sisters, Black Butte, and Mount Jefferson.
Bottom image: On the tarmac at Redmond, Oregon, waiting to taxi to the terminal. That's Mount Jefferson (right) and Black Butte (left) in the background.

I hope you've enjoyed your flight today!
By the way ... full view will be a little bigger, if you want a closer look.

Good idea! I liked the collage, great work!

Terrific aerial tour of your flight in this initial collage, Tara! Love the Boeing airliners in the first photo and that circa 1920s Redmond, Oregon airport. A far cry from that LAX madhouse. It may be my AOL browser, but there's a lot of color blue banding on those long distance shots. Otherwise, quite spectacular. Only 985 more photos to go!
