Geo,

Thanks for the great Blue Angel Pics.

Thanks Richard. It was really a fun experience taking the photos. There was whooping and yelling and hoo rays galore. There was a timing factor in getting many of the shots and I felt good coming back home and seeing how I got those crossing, passing shots. Took more today and will post later.

Great Blue Angels shots. They were here in Twin week B4 last but we were in Yellowstone until the last afternoon of their show. We got to to see Fat Albert's JATO assisted launch and 45 degree climbout and some formation flying at some distance. It isn't like being here with the noise and the smell of burning kerosene, though.

It is almost as breath taking looking at the pictures as it is watching in person. Thanks for some terriffic pics.

I've only been fortunate enough to see them live & in person a couple of times but these photos do whet my appetite to see them again.

Thanks for sharing with us!

I saw them practicing over my son's house when he lived in Pensacola. They were so low I could read the writing on the planes. I'm talking really low.

Rose, the first day of taking pics, DW and I shouted together, "We can see the pilots!" I took some shots yesterday with some trees in the frames. Gives a different perspective to show how really low they can fly by.

Several years ago they were training at Glacier Airport in Montana while we were at Meadow Lake. We drove to the airport and watched them from the side of the highway a couple of times. The days that we were on the golf course it was pretty hard to concentrate as we were all busy watching them.

geoand, thanks so much for posting the Blue Angels pictures. Seeing them fly over Lake Washington while standing on the I-90 bridge is one of my fondest memories of all the Seafair festivities.

For Rose

 

[Rose Pink]

Thanks, Geo.

It was so odd to be in the yard and feel like I could almost reach up and touch them.

Both of my sons are in the US Navy.

Looks like that bear is smiling.

Nice bear photos. Where were these beauties taken?

 

[easyrider]

These bear are in Northwest WA close to the Salish Sea. I think its the place Walt Disney created back when Disney did alot of nature films. It is now called the Olypic Game Farm. http://www.olygamefarm.com/

It was a kick in the pants as many of the animals are free to roam and will stick their heads in the suv window to say Hi. A couple of elk reached in and through oposit windows wile they were being fed. The big one was half way across the back seat trying to reach a bite. A buffalo licked the car door handle and opened the door on my wife.
