AF graduation

Waited two hours this morning to get tix. Pres Obama is the speaker this year.

My friend is a professor there and just got my wife and I tickets. I have long wanted to head down, just to watch the T-Birds perform. Getting to see the President give the commencement address will be an added bonus.

Did you get tickets because you were in the military, or do they offer them to the general public?

They offer 500 seats to the public, which is what I grabbed this morning.

The jets come in a week early to practice, so I get to watch them quite a bit.

I'd offer to take you around the Falcon Trail on your visit, but they'll probably have the place locked down.

I have hiked the Falcon Trail before and enjoyed it. Have you run Eagle Peak? I am hoping to get in a run before or after, but it really all depends on the wife and how long her parents are willing to watch the twins.

Let's keep in touch though, maybe we can meet up either way at some point.

Bring earplugs, but not for the T-birds.

Yes, for all the AF people talking about how badass they think they are.

so after the speech do they load you onto a train for the gulag?
