Air Show

This year our area hosted the Navy's Blue angels and had a terrific air show for the community.  The scouts were going to go for a day camp, but they the rest of our family decided they wanted to go as well so we made it a family outing.  Cody went with the scouts because they went earlier, and Austin got a date with Jessica Green and rode their four-wheelers out to one of the hills behind the airport where they got a birds eye view of the air show.  We went out a little later, but I'm told it didn't make any difference in the traffic, it was thick through-out the whole day. 
This is the traffic jam we were in, it took about two hours to get to the
airport, normally a 30 min drive from Hurricane.

Dalyon is co-pilot Lots of controls!!  The pilot said it took
him 4 months to be trained to fly the airplane.

Dalyon and Cami in the cargo seats of the plane.  The space can hold
tanks, and other vehicles, and has a basketball hoop for the empty runs.
It was really windy that day, so much that we ran to our cars to get
out of the weather.  The blue angels still dd their display but it was hard to see
because of all the dust.
Mady and her friend Chelsi went with us.  Love the tongue sis!!

Lots of people at the airshow.  This is the transport plane we were in.
The Blue Angels, or at least four of the six.  It was really cool!!
