Downey (U58)

Taking off from American Falls we pasted by Taryn’s family house as they waived bye! Now following interstate I-84 we came up on Pocatello much quicker than expected, talking with tower I couldn’t help but think how weird it was not to land, landing at Idaho airports is what I do 🙂

Now the city of Pocatello, Idaho I have never been to, but the surrounding geography is beautiful, I had no idea!! What a blast it was watching the extensive train operation and then flying low and slow through the canyon south of Pocatello while following the interstate. I remember the canyon opening up to a beautiful farm filled valley, complete with the iconic barns and houses you would see in old movies.

After a little searching we found the Downey airport. The funny thing about Downey that I didn’t notice from the air, THERE IS A TURN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RUNWAY. Take a close look at the picture and see for yourself, I couldn’t help but laugh :-)o a beautiful farm filled valley, complete with the iconic barns and houses you would see in old movies.
