Leaving on a jet plane. . .(The biggest hit song for Peter, Paul and Mary,
and also their last. 1969)
"Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go'
Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go"
John Denver
I am rooted, but my scent travels to you on a breeze!"When the oak is felled the whole forest echoes with its fall,
but a hundred acorns are sown in silence
by an unnoticed breeze.”

Ah, you got the video from Burl. Saw your comment on his blog, too.
Isn't it great to make new friends, CC? I think my blogger party was brilliant. It was nice to actually meet the person behind the blog.
Yeah,thanks to Gigi i met you....i liked that bracelet a lot and the quote i am rooted ,but my scent travels to you on a breeze.wow!!!
I will leave the war machines to fly where governments send them as for me I will simply walk among the stars of my sky and dare a simple plane of of mans design to follow me to the cold living places between the galaxies where I have placed my toes freely.
Good morning from Florida to you. I love your videos and thoughts. Will be following you. Love, Kathy

I have to wonder about pilots like these, who fly with such abandon, if they were birds in a previous life. Just beautiful. And I love those bracelets!
nice to be in the air..
What power and grace. and the freedom! wow.
Woohoo, the ghost of John Denver seems to be alive and well in blogdom just lately. I love his music.
Great video, Cloudia! I would love to be a giant bird so I could fly like that :)
Thanks for letting us fly all over your beautiful islands (and do loop the loops and barrel rolls). Maybe we should make a new law: war planes are to be used for recreation only....
That was one of my favorite songs. Isn't that an oleander blossom? So beautiful but so deadly?
How sweet to know a Cloud, like you! Aloha!
Lovely post Cloudia. :)
I love John Denver.
John Denver seems to be making the rounds in blogs. The song 'Leavin' on a Jet Plane' brings fond memories of a trip to Hawaii the winter of 1969.
Yes, it's great to make new friends!
I smell a lovely breeze from India.
To walk among the galaxies, wow!
Florida + Flowery :]
We do soar and wear bracelets.
Nice to be in the air. Wow Indeed!
Friendly ghosts flavor the blogosphere, yes.
Our hearts are giant birds.
Recreation - not war!
A mystery blossom to me, Kay.
How sweet to be a cloud known.
Lovely, Ake.
We love our troubadors.
Memories of 69.
Thank you my collaborator-poets!
That video was awesome. The blue angels were in San Francisco a few weeks ago. Awesome.
Have a terrific day. :)
the 2nd pic and the caption 'I am rooted, but my scent travels to you on a breeze!' both are marvelous!

aloha!
Up up and away, a lovely video. Nice bracelet too.
Jolly to see your friends too!
I enjoyed this post from top to bottom. I loved that song the way John Denver did it. He spoke to my heart. Thinking of him and flying....
Thanks for being you.
I've been addicted to all things aviation since I was a child. My uncle flew C-47s (aka DC-3 Dakotas) for the RCAF in WWII, and later for the nascent IAF in 1948. I grew up hearing his bigger than life stories and wondered how he made it out alive.
The Mirage has a special place in my heart. Marcel Dassault was as pure an aircraft designer as ever existed, and his evolving family of tailless deltas for generations set the tone for elegance and grace in the skies.
I know I'm misplacing my admiration, as these are ostensibly machines of war. But technological leadership has throughout human history evolved at the tip of the proverbial spear, and that fact does nothing, in my view, to dampen the engineering wonder of it all.
The Mirage 2000s featured here are flying works of art, and this promo is beyond inspirational. I'm so pleased that you shared it here.
Thank you, Sandy.
I agree with you about the planes, Carmi. Aloha you two dears!
