Phil was fortunate to get free tickets to the air show this weekend.. so we couldn't pass it up. I will admit my favorite wasn't the planes though, it was the rocket bus. It was a school bus with a rocket on the back of it - it's reported to be able to go up to 350 miles per hour. And the beauty of it was the big fireball on the back. Don't worry, we informed Wendell that his school bus WOULD NOT do this. But below are just a few of the pictures we took.

Thanks to Phil for naming all these planes.. I'm not quite the enthusiast but Phil and the kids really enjoyed it so it was worth it. It was interesting on my bike ride today seeing all the people sitting in various areas to see the planes. I'm not sure how many people came but they were expecting 100,000, quite the crowd.
** Again, great thanks to Sarah for the advice on the blog. It's working much better and I'm enjoying posting again!
