On a recent trip from Seattle to Newark, NJ, I had a window seat on an Alaska Airlines flight.  Normally I opt for an aisle seat, but all were taken.

I decided that this would be the day that I took periodic video shots of the scenery. While there was cloud cover for most of the trip, the patterns in the clouds were endlessly fascinating. And the sun provided gorgeous views on takeoff and landing on this short winter day.

For those of you who are observant after we take off you will see cameo views of Mt Rainier, Mt St. Helens, and Mt. Adams.
