| Entering California/first green after Nevada |
We departed Torrey, Utah, early, breakfasted in Richfield at the Wonder Cafe, which is an hour's drive from our hotel. Bravo was waiting for us at the airport. We flew over Utah and the San Francisco Mountians through Nevada (smoothest ride ever over NV) and landed in Bishop, which is in a valley between the White Mountains and the eastern edge of the southern Sierras.

Lunched at the tiny Bishop airport at the Thai Thai Restaurant and tried to convince the owner to move to the north coast. No luck with that. It was a tasty stop and good to stretch after the 2 hour flight.

The next leg of the flight took us over some snowy 14,000' peaks. It was already 80 degrees at 1 p.m. so climbing was slow.

The scenery was beautiful across the Sierras and the flying was fine.

This was only the second time we used oxygen on the trip. Steve commented that with all our flying we were never in IFR (instrument conditions) at all.

In fact, we had only one day of occasional showere on the ground for the three weeks we were traveling.

Today's destination is Monterey and we are 14 minutes away as I'm writing this in the plane to get a head start on the blog. We are here for an investment conference. It is always informative as the company does investments with startup companies and cutting edge products and technology.
