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.

The Blue Angels are awesome, although being an AF wife, I prefer the Thunderbirds :tt2:

Jet noise, the sound of freedom!

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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
