Nuthouse to East Beach

Great way to start off the new year with a flight from Ojai to Santa Barbara with a good crew. Never got above 5,300 in the Pass and got stuck behind White Ledge for 30 minutes close to the terrain with no exit. Finally busted out and the flight to East Beach was unremarkable. Three hours fifteen minutes.

I had to land early to catch the Rose Bowl where my alma mater (Oregon Ducks) beat Sundowner's alma mater (Florida State Seminoles) in a rout. Fantastic start to 2015!
