Up, up and arriving at dark

So made it onto the plane and was fortunate that the cloudy day was, well, not so cloudy for the summit of Mount Rainier.  I’m still figuring out this new pocket camera so I plan to try and run it through the paces. — Pretty nice looking terminal at night.  Those Denver folks are...
