21 F-15's flying overhead circling for an hour prior to their fly-over of the GRFord museum. Noisy, kids in the street are having a field day.

1. The motorcade actually went past my favorite
pagan store. Too bad I wasn't there but the woman who is running it today said she saw it earlier.

Wow 21 F-15s!!!

3. Well I'm glad if you are enjoying it...
Personally I can't wait for this whole thing to be over... there are sooooo many people downtown right now that they are actually saying that it passes the attendance rate for the annual Festival held every year.

4. I don't mind it. People need something to do this winter anyway.
But I'm not down your way so I can understand that its tiresome. Anyway, today's the last day.

5. I think they make their turn over my mom's house.
She said they were loud when they practiced yesterday.

She and her husband went up today. She said it was really amazing. She also said that the vets were told by the Secret Service not to line the bridge, but they did anyway (about six deep in lines, from what a vet's mom told her in line). Mom said she had not idea what the SS could be worried about.

7. How cold is it in Allegan
I use to go there to visit a rather large client of mine. If you are from Allegan you know who i am talking about.

I use to drive up M131 in the Winter from the freeway from GR, can't rememebr the number. I would be amazed at the people ice fishing at 5am on the lake to the left as I was headed towards Allegan. Sitting on buckets in the middle of a froze ntundra. Those are some tough people.

8. Its what we in Michigan would call chilly today---35-40/windy but sunny
There is no ice on any of the lakes this year so far. No skiiing at present. Bad year for snow sports.

Today is a nice day actually.
