Luke Days 2009 - Airshow

Garrett was great today at the airshow. It took us more than 3 hours to go from one mile away from the base to inside the base (2 hours standing in line). So we're very tired and a little burnt despite applying plenty of sun block. Garrett was perfect. The afterburners on the F-22 didn't phase him at all. We got inside just as the F-22 was taking off...really the inspiration for us standing in line that long. Once we saw it take off and do it's thing we got something to eat, cooled off, walked around for maybe a half an hour and went home. Yeah, we were probably there for half the time it took us to get in. All the frustrations on getting in took the enjoyment of the show out of us. But at least I got to see the new F-22 fly.


Hopefully the next time we go (he'll be 2 years old) he'll be just as perfect as he was today. Next time I'll get a shot of him sitting in a fighter.
