A bit windy in Pearland today. I decided to try a sunset flight on Hwy. 288, just south of Hwy. 6. At about 5:15 p.m. the wind started to settle down. I took off into a SE wind that was blowing about 10 mph. I had the DV camera rolling with 2 lipstick case camera's on my helmet. One a standard lens and the other a wide angle fish eye lens.

There were plenty of onlookers that pulled over to watch as I flew around the rice fields near Hwy. 288. I was up for about 45 minutes and the strobe light I recently added to my paraglider was blinking brightly as I landed a good 20 minutes or so past sunset. It was a great flight, and a pretty sunset. More to Come...
