1st set.
1) F-4 on a stick at the museum
2) Satellite launched by a Atlas Rocket. The mission escapes me at the moment.
3) Jon...need I say more?
4) Southwest 737 on the glide slope for Runway 27 at KSAN
In number three with Jon, is the look on his face how the bear part of his handle came to be? What a snarl 
Or is that the secret to steady tracking with the big glass?
Could make for a good caption contest 
A good reporter must always look for the details that give away the true story... so if you notice every detail - the whole left side of my face all the way to the hair is being pushed straight up due to an incredible micro-burst of wind pressure up there on the edge of the cliff. I had no conscious control over any of it... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
Glad you made it through the light, Rodolfo. There was a Michael Keaton - Glenn Close movie a number of years ago about a NY newspaper that opened with the line "In 24 hours, your whole world can change." and then the movie is all that happens in the next 24 hours. Good movie! I think though our world can change in a split second and everything can come crashing (literally and figuratively) down around you. The one thing all of us must take away from it though is this... St. Peter does not let us into the Pearly Gates based on what we did or how good we were or how many prayers we made or any of that. All of those things determine our reward in heaven - but not the access to it. Peter opens the gate based on one thing and one thing only and it is nothing that we do at all. Else Christ died for nothing.
I know -its complicated and difficult to work out - and there is no shame in misunderstanding this as too many churches of most denominations sometimes get off track and move away from the clear teaching of Scripture. St. Paul says it clearly enough in Ephesians "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast." Even the faith is not something we muster from inside us - but a gift that God gives us, so that it is entirely a work of God to bring any of us into His presence.
You were given a good deal of Divine providence and grace going through that light intact - enjoy His favor and respond in kind. He got you through for a reason. Its a good thing! May God continue to bless you.
