Jeffco Air Show...

Yesterday the family and I were treated to the sights, sounds, and feeling of an F-16 fighter jet flying as low as 300 feet over our head.

If you didn't know about the Jeffco Air Show and you live in the Denver metro area, you probably figured it out; 28,000 lbs or thrust creates a lot of noise. We watched as the F-16 fighter jet did laps from Denver to Boulder in under a minute. It was amazing!

As I watched this machine and the power it harnessed I couldn't help but think, "I'm glad it's on my side."

best corkscrew I've ever seen.
