When the boredom gets to thick Kadizzle sits in the sun with a pair of binoculars and scans the world. The birds are always here eating our salad bar. Then there are the big birds in the sky. Things have slowed down, but we are on the flight path for the Mesa airport. Allegiant comes in around two or three with two planes. It used to be in the Southwest before the pandemic there were always five planes in the sky. Now often there are none. Some budding stunt pilot comes up from Phoenix and does some neat tricks. Kadizzle's favorite is when he goes straight up turns off the engine and just lets the plane tumble to the ground until he is forced to pull out of the mess and happily go on his way. Constantly the Army is dropping people in the lake with inflatable rafts and then picking them out with helicopters. About once a week the Airforce weaves in and out of the mountains. Seems like there is always one helicopter going somewhere.
Yesterday Kadizzle was watching the world go by in the sky and saw something unexplainable. An Allegiant plane descended toward Mesa. Kadizzle followed it with binoculars. Relatively close to the plane there appeared to be something silverish and white like a long streamer. It looked like it might be a parachute coming down from very high altitude, then it seemed to go up. It looked like a parachute that did not fill with air. To some degree it seemed to be following the route of the plane. It generally went up and in the same direction of the plane. No clue what it was.
So today appears to be one more perfect day. Jupitor and Saturn will be almost aligned tonight. A little Trump note. No one seems to be to excited that the Trump gang was proposing Marshall Law? Wow, have the Republicans gone off the deep end?
