Greg,daughter and I went to Camrose today,a huge music jamboree is held there every Aug. long weekend,this year being thier 12 year they had the snowbirds put on a show. It was awesome,daughter took the pics,its really hard to get pics of jets flying that speed,all the pilots are part of the Canadian Airforce and are an elite specially picked group of pilots. We lost one recently at an airshow in Montana,I could understand the accident,they preform some awesome manouvers. Lets just say I was in awe.

Well from our visits, I'd have to say that boy is doing a pretty good job of raising you. :D

Now, if he can just get you over your horse addiction. :wink:

I'm fortunate to live close to Saskatoon, and like you, Judith, I get the priviledge of watching them practice also. They're flying over our place, because the air space above our farm is used for teaching, doesn't interfere with airport traffic.
