February 1, 201610 yr My daily routine to keeping healthy are long hikes in my local area ... wish I had my good camera with me but sadly these are just iPhone pics: Last one is panoramic ... my house is in there somewhere I'm hoping these graphics are in P3D V5 and my i9 9980X CPU a Jupiter One GPU will be enough to get 30 FPS Cheers, Rob.
February 1, 201610 yr I've been considering aeromodelism again to get me away from my sim PC, and to the field ( when not flying... for real, which is rare these Troika days... )... Picking some air in the face, Sun, and playing with an R/C glider is probably what I'll try to do... I just will not try it on a day like that, although IRL we sometimes do like those days... Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
February 1, 201610 yr Amazingly I managed to stay dry ... the green has returned to Cali. Cheers, Rob.
February 2, 201610 yr I just love the contrast in the first shot, it announces something nasty going to happen. Be prepar3d ( ) to face Lord Sauron on the other side of the hill! Great panoramic shot, love the scenery. Regards, Vital Vanbeginne

February 4, 201610 yr Beautiful! Really looks like a great place and region for undertaking longer hikes! Enjoy flying and happy landings.
February 4, 201610 yr Yes, Mt.Diablo is close to 4000 ft elevation, my normal hiking routine only takes me to about 1200 ft, but when I bike up it's about a 55 min climb (11.1mi) to top (when I was younger), but these older days it's over an hour In the summer all that green will be "golden brown". In the Winter we sometimes get snow at the top of Mt. Diablo. Orbx did a pretty good job of this area in terms of seasons ... we definitely have 3 very visual seasons (summer, winter/spring, fall). Makes California look entirely different going from season to season. But for now it's green, lots of green: Cheers, Rob.
February 4, 201610 yr How was precipitation in California, especially in the Sierra Nevada this winter? --------------------------- Blue Skies, Gottfried www.blueskyscenery.com
February 4, 201610 yr Long time California residents know two seasons: fire/flood....that thick underbrush that grows on California hillsides will burn dowm thousands of homes this year....California residents know about 50mph offshore winds with single digit humidity! HLJAMES
