Heading for the Equator!

How is this for a cold picture! Yes that is snow you see too, they were delayed 1 1/2 hours in that little terminal waiting for the snow to let up so they could board the plane. It is a 30 minute flight to get from Homer, to Anchorage but it takes 5 hours to drive over the mountains that  separate the 2 places. We had turbulence coming into Homer from all the updrafts coming off those mountains. Anchorage is the only flat spot around and it is like flying down into a bowl to get to it from all the mountain ranges around.
