Blue Angels In my Backyard



Recommended Posts

There's an Airshow this weekend here for Blue Angels & Golden Knights. I had to come home early from work, and they're practicing in our backyard. We watched some really cool crap before I thought to grab the camera.

So here's just a couple. And it's sooo loud, sounds like planes are about to crash into our house..

I love the blue angels. Every November here in Jacksonville, the naval air station hosts a land, sea and air show. The blue angels are always part of it and we love going and seeing them.

In another life I think my DH would have been in the military. We used to go to the air shows at Andrews AFB and back then I just thought it was loud and hot!

Now I live way out in the country and when I hear a jet flying over/near my house it is really cool! I think I miss airplanes flying and city and life and light! I think if the Blue Angels flew over my house and my DH was home he would have wet his pants!

Reminds me of when I was younger we would go park near the International airport (On top of a parking garage) And watch and listen to the planes. At night the garage was mostly empty! Growing up we lived in a very small farming town near a base and used to watch the jets do manuvers often!! Lots of times they would practice at night dropping flares and such. Was such a fun things for us kids to watch. Many times we would hear the jets coming long before they could be seen and we would run to the road (No trees) to watch them fly over.

We live next to the airport, which is why theyre in our backyard.. We also live near train tracks, I have anxiety that planes or trains are going to crash into our house at any moment!!

Its the Blue Angels & Golden Knights performing, but I thought it was cool to watch :tt2:)

Today's show starts soon, I helped set up our company's booth but watching it from home today. Going to the actual show tomorrow.

Planes scare me, I've always been scared of them, the train tracks are about as close as the airport too, but the train can't crash into my house like an airplane can. The other day I heard this HUGEE HUGE HUGGGGGE roaring, starting to come towards the house, 3 huge helicopters flew righhhhhhhht over top of it. Shit scares me LOL

Man, you are lucky! I love airshows. Especially the military jets! I used to build aircraft for Bombardier until I retired. Thanks for posting these.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
