18 Dec 08 Thanksgiving Air Show

For Thanksgiving we had a really nice meal and the Army/Air Force also decided to put on a static air show.  Basically it was a bunch of aircraft and other military stuff was put on display for people to look at and even climb on and take lots of pictures.  This stuff is always interesting and there were lots of people around to answer any questions.  So combined with a nice meal at lunch and an airshow where pictures were encouraged, it was a pretty good Thanksgiving.  From the pics below you can see that it was a nice day out on 27 November but look at the long shadows and that was only about 1 PM in the afternoon.  The days are clear now and the nights are dang right cold at night.  We've had one good rain storm but the wet season is only beginning. Urgh, and did I use 'dang' again?  I'm gunna get back to the states and speak like dat and someone will ask me "Where you lern 'Southren boy?" And I'll answer "Iraq!"
