I like landing at dusk/night. Things feel more peaceful and quiet. The track log of this flight is here:

I made it from KRHV to KMEV (146 KMiles) in under an hour.

Great video, nice Cessna. I want to fly there again and sight see. Surprisingly green pastures around there.

Maybe not so much of an issue there, but here in the middle of the country, dusk is when bambi and his thousands of cousins decide it's time to get up and stretch their legs. It's the time of day demanding the most vigilance.

Can't disagree more. During the day at Minden there are a lot of glider operations, aircraft without radios, jets, turboprops, firebombers etc. All times of the day/night require vigilance. If I had a choice I would take a deer over a midair.
