You will have a blast! Party all week long. :cheers2:

I'm going to be at Marine Sales where you will launch. This is just about 2 miles (by water) from the main viewing area.

The fireworks will blow you away. :eek:

Few more.....

Boat and some of the air show. We were about 2 miles upriver from the air box. Didn't get many of the smaller planes. I couldn't get the camera out of my pocket quick enough. :rolleyes:

First plane pic is the B1B coming in Friday at SDF while I was on my way to work.
