By the way, Jen and Becca, do you remember the airshows in Pensacola we used to go to?

The Blue Angels are in town!
This weekend is the bi-annual airshow. Lots of cool military planes and antique biplanes, etc. are in town. I was at work from 0815 until 1930 (7:30 p.m. for you landlubbers) and didn't write a single parking ticket. Most of the day was spent hanging around the airport watching the airplanes. I got to see the Blues practice, and also saw F-15s, F-16s, Korean War era Migs, C-130s, and some acrobatic planes. There was even a WWII B-25 Liberator there. Worst part was that I didn't have my camera. Bummer. Since it was such a long, although unproductive, day, I will compensate by taking off three hours early tomorrow afternoon. That'll give me a little longer weekend.

Please note: B25 is a 'Mitchell' (two engines) of Doolittle's Raid fame, B24 is the 'Liberator' (four engines) of bombing Ploesti fame. I testify that this is true. Amen. Sorry I'm anal. bruce
Yes, I totally remember the air shows in Pensacola. Didn't the Blue Angels practice over our home we lived in on base? Fun times!
