A great man. Doing what he loves. In his element. No words. No reports. No accidents. The silence speaks volumes! Thanks Juan for this great video showing us just how much you love to fly!💕🇨🇦
Every time I want to just pack up and leave California, I drive around and marvel at its beauty and realize that I'll never leave. It remains the most beautiful place I've ever seen. Great video, Juan.
I have to agree Owe Jay. I haven't lived in CA for over thirty years but it is stunning. Our last trip was to Petaluma and along the Russian River to the coast. I just said to my wife while watching this, "this is why some people will never leave CA, you know one day the unbelievable beauty will just pop up and you have to be there to see it as it does not last long." I have seen the raging rivers and the desert in bloom as a visitor. I consider myself extremely lucky to have experienced that level of natural beauty.
Wow, flown over the NW and California for 50 years and never seen anything like it! I would say that Northern California in many ways is one of the most special places in the world, not just for geography but history, climate and the quality of life it offered when I was growing up. An average person who worked hard could afford a nice home, ranch, an airplane and could afford to enjoy it. Fresh food, clean air, water. little crime and a lot of good, honest people. I always hoped to be able to enjoy that dream, at least I can still enjoy the dream and admire those like Juan who share it with us. Thanks Juan!
Years ago when I was in the USMC in 29 Palms we had a few weeks of wet weather, the Joshua Tree national forest went into a super bloom, which was an amazing event, cactuses of all types were blooming, and fields of white and yellow flowers everywhere.
@@williambarry8015 It was back in 1991 and I was shooting film, I shot over 30 rolls in a few days. it is a joy to behold! and expensive to get the film developed.
In the early part of 1964 an unusual heavy rain occurred that soaked the area east of the range that was east of San Diego. We took a drive through that area and noticed millions of tiny flowers in areas that were normally quite dry. It was not as dramatic as the aerial view you showed here, but is was noteworthy. The desert can be an interesting place. Well done, Juan.
So beautiful. Thank you for the ride my friend. And thanks again for reminding us that everything doesn't need a narrator, the music by itself was just perfect. Your skills as a video creator demand an acknowledgement.
Yellow color "Coast Fiddelneck" member of the Borage Family. Blue Color "Texas Bluebonnet" or Lupin. Purple color "Indian Paintbrush" Orange color "California Poppy" Thanks Juan for bringing some beauty and quality to us for a few transcendent moments when words don't.
Spent a weekend in West Wendover, Nv. Good gentle rain Friday afternoon. By Sunday morning the Great Salt desert was showing off it colors. Lovely, lovely, lovely 🌺
I worked on the first large solar farm in California City from late 2010 to the fall of 2013. Never saw a bloom like that. We got dust storms from Soda lake that were so bad we had to shut down the Job. Thanks for the video Juan.
Has your mom ever had a look at Nick Zentner's geology videos from Central Washington University? They are Washington-centric, but he, as a professor of geology, does a great job of introducing and expanding on all things geological to be found there...and that's a lot. During the pandemic, when the university was closed, he did 5 videos a week from his back yard for a semester, then cut it down to 3 per week. He has let us (RU-vid watchers) sit in on his classes and field trips, and has put together some great A to Z series (26 videos over 13 weeks), on such topics as exotic terrains and the Baja-British Columbia puzzle.
Beautiful video, Juan! Thanks for sharing California with a Cali native living overseas. And I'm amazed at how tiny that runway was at the end. Nice landing.
A BIG thank you for another very enjoyable glimpse of 'over there' JB. Oh for such empty spaces... These are much appreciated this side and bring a little light relief from our cold grey drizzle.. Talking of which, the shot of you leaving the office tells me you found that bush first! Long may you enjoy your life 'Happy Man'...
Haha Thanks Juan...Here in Western NY last weekend it was in the 80's...by Tuesday this week it was snowing...yup it's Spring in NY. Life is great isn't it!
Thanks Juan! While so many actively work to turn California into a cesspool, you work so very very hard to show its many diverse beauties. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for taking the time to show bud all this amazing time in California. I have beeen driving all through Bay Area and Northern California and it’s the most beautiful it has been for a long time!
Beautiful video of the South Central Western Valley hills. I hauled barley out of the Panoche Valley 58 years ago. That country hasn’t changed . Still beautiful in its own special way. Thanks for the ride Juan.
From brown and barren a few months ago to green, gold, orange, white and blue. It's moments like these that make you really appreciate what Life has to offer. tyvm for the trip, i miss flying around like this.
Just ''plane'' awesome! Thanks, Juan. The orange California poppies dominate patches of front yards on my street where the people removed the lawns and landscaped with drought resistant shrubs. The wildflowers are really enjoying the sun. They are on every hillside along Highway 4 between Martinez and Crockett where I often travel.
What a beautiful state. I lived there for 45 years, but finally had to leave. Fortunately, we've gotten enough rain here in Central Texas to get some very nice wildflowers this spring, too. But I do miss the poppies.
my comment didn't save..I wanted to thank you for sharing a perfect video with us. ive never seen images of California so lush. im 47 and live in BC. Thank You!!
