   June 26, 2016....


    Has been a great weekend so far with the fam. Well yesterday was a not so nice day but that wasn't anyone's fault really. Unless you want to blame the air force for the really bad planning in the parking situation at the air show.  
    It took us three hours just to get to the parking lot and park. Then we had to walk quite a long and hot road to get to the place the show was actually going on. Once we were there It was ok, I really enjoyed the jet car and the plane racing and very much enjoyed the Thunderbirds they were awesome and It made me want to fly a plane again like I used to want to do as a child. I was also very impressed with how in sync they are even when they are checking the plane.
   They swore in a bunch of new recruits to the air force and that was pretty cool too.  Made me think of my Nephew the Marine who just got deployed to Africa, Iraq, and Spain.  He should be home in 9 months assuming all goes good and he doesn't die in this God forsaken war that is never going to end.
    The hike back to the car was even hotter and more miserable because I was dehydrated and my head was feeling like it might explode if jarred to suddenly and J was whining about the blisters on her foot from her brand new flip flops she wore.   Not to mention that we hadn't eaten all day and we were all grumpy and hot.
    By the end we were home and cooled off and fed and falling asleep so it wasn't so bad. Someday we will be able to laugh about it but at the moment we are never wanting to go again.   I think I would rather fight the crowds at the zoo.
    Tomorrow I start my short week. Start my vacation (or staycation) on Friday.  Hoping to leave early Thursday too.  That would actually be the best day because it will be the furthest day from going back to work ha ha
    We are headed to Yellowstone Next Wednesday so that should be a fun thing to experience with my love. Plus we are staying in Yellowstone Inn so we don't have to deal with air mattresses and being too hot or too cold.
     Love summer. This is the first time I've taken an entire week off. I usually just do the half weeks so I can have more long weekends .  This should be a fun relaxing new experience for me.
