Its the beginning of Memorial Day weekend and we leave after work Thursday for the short flight to KBDN. We have a big trip planned; kinda. We aren’t sure what we are doing after Sedona yet, but we have some ideas. So far the plan is KBDN-KPSP-KSEZ, to be in Palm Springs Friday night and drop off Grandpa in Sedona after that. Then we have 2 days to get home to be back home from Sedona and were gonna pick a spot as we get closer and see what availability and weather allow. We have been looking at the Lodges in the National Parks all week, but they are full and it is a busy weekend, so were not sure about that.

The flight to Bend has quickly turned in to “riding a bike.” We know it will be about an hour, wind dependent. There are a few early summer thunderstorms along our route we plan around. It is super great we have on board weather radar to help us plan in flight too! As predicted we land in 1:05 (vs 5:47 driving in a car!)  We don’t plan any services as we are just parking, sleeping and leaving early the next day.
