I flew from Dallas after TNT Monday morning to New Orleans to do some
training at the Fairgrounds Horse Racing track, from there it was right down to
the French Quarter for some great food and music.
I got on the road about 7pm to Beaumont MS, and this morning was on a Air
Guard straffing range to give them some operational training with my machine to
clean up bullets.
Little did I realize that I'd be there when two F18's would make a pass
close enough for me to see pilots! The noise is incredible! I got a
short vid clip of their initial approach to the tower, the rest was off limits.
:-(
Might have been one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my travels,
well right up there with the topless girl sitting next to me while I had lunch
in Playa Del Carmen (Cancun). :-)
It was warm and humid after the last nights huge rain storms, but after the
planes had cleared out it got sunny with a light breeze....
The guys in Vegas land on carpets, the guys at Swasa land on carpets, but
today Sharon landed on Bullets! :-) Glad I brought my bungee.
I found a little place in Beaumont that had some ribs cooking and the sauce
was sweet but tangy.
How'd your day go?
Next stop Gulf Shores Alabama.
