Last night the Kadizzlites nested at
Dead Horse Ranch near Cottonwood. Today the Earth Module was prepped
to move up to the Sedona area. Filled with water we headed North.
On highway 525 we went to our old spot from last year, but The
Commander did not approve of the dusty conditions so we drove down
the road near the fancy model airplane airport. Here we found a nice
spot and set up. Kadizzle went down to the model airport for model
airplanes and met a flyer he had talked a little earlier. In the
earlier conversation Kadizzle asked the model airplane pilot what
happened if he lost power or control when he was doing his strait up
act with the plane. The pilot could make the plane stand up straight
in the air and not move. The pilot said he had never had that
problem. Well when Kadizzle returned the pilot said he had just
crashed his plane doing what Kadizzle had asked about earlier.
Kadizzle asked to look at the crashed plane in the back of the truck.
This was a big plane with about a four foot wing span. Yup, the
plane was crashed. Luckily he had another plane with him and
continued his fun. He could make this plane stand still pointing
strait up motionless. Kadizzle has a good bullshit session with the
gentleman and asked many questions about the little planes. The
amazing small engine could produce 2-3 horsepower.
When the airport visit was over
Kadizzle took of on the cycle for what he though was a brief
exploration drive. In no time Kadizzle was lost on some wonderful
roads, and what Kadizzle had planned as a three or four mile ride
turned out to be thirty miles of lost wandering before he got back to
the camper. The ride went through some of the most scenic land in
the country. The red cliffs up near Sedona so many people come to
see were in the background and Kadizzle found the area was more vast
than he had anticipated.
