I'm a bad, bad boy.  With the colder than yesterday
temps and low overcast skies i elected to hang out at
the house for the last day of the airshow.  I was off
from work so i took the time to chill.  But everything
at the show did fly today i heard, including the
Harrier.  Oh, well.  Maybe we'll get another show in
three more years.  Next up:  Huntsville, AL. June
28-29, 2008.  Talk about withdrawals!!
