so it rained... I mean, it monsooned for about 20-30 minutes just as we were arriving. this is a shot from us in the hanger we reached after that first 20 minute time period during which we were trapped under the baggage check tent, which didn't do us much good since the wind blew the rain under as well... you know, the kind of downpour where about two minutes into it the fields are swamps and the gutters are rivers... our torsos stayed somewhat dry thanks to the raincoats, but everything else was drenched.
The kids got to get in a variety of the showcased planes, this is the AF equivalence of a blackhawk...
this is a bigger one, the kind that they move troops around in. Coryn tells me he wants to be a pilot.
look at the huge crowd! no seriously, at this point in the day I think this is the entire group of people that braved the onslaught of rain and was still at the festivus when Melinda Doolittle of American Idol fame performed.
the crowd tripled at least by the time Gary Senise and the Lt. Dan Band... they're pretty dang good too! We didn't stay too long after they started, it was late, getting dark and cold, and the kids were tired.
