Yesterdays and todays events in Reno have me forgetting what today is Bill!
I am glad I am returning home later. The wrath displayed here against veterans and non-protesting civilians is moronic and misguided!
And we served and died so these morons can do this!!?
I apologize to ALL the father's here for forgetting today!
Hang in there Dan...
Ya, shooting into the sun isn't the best but sometimes neat as well.
Flew all 3 drones yesterday and headin out again here in a sec.
Great images in the last couple pages! I went to Ocean City for the show again today, sat on the cold beach for almost 6 hours. They kept postponing the show due to the low cloud ceiling. It didn't look like it was getting any better by 2:45 so I left. They cancelled the show later after all. Yesterday they cancelled the show after one act.
Glad I went on Friday, poor light but at least the vaper god was kind. Here are a few from Friday, Ea-18G Growler and Blue Angel.
Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.

I am in Reno Jim for my 75th Ranger "H" Co LRRP 77th reunion!!
I will reply later when I calm down and get my rage under control! The hotel the 1CDA stayed in and held our reunion in was over run with "protesters and activists"! It was by coincidence. The streets of Reno were filled with morons!
They even tore down the placards showing the veterans where our events were being held!
So this is where our Country is going?
Dan
I think some Vets need to "splain" something to those idiots!

That is some insane vapor, Doug. Wow!! That first one looks like it's coming out of a time travel portal.
Sorry to hear about your ailments and the poor weather, but these are all striking gold, IMHO.
Thank you very much Gero! Yes, the vapor on Friday was insane. Here is another shot from the same sequence. You can see the Coast Guard boat in the lower right corner.

Our friend with the seats behind home plate called last night to see if we wanted to go to the game. I could care less, but Sheila loves it, the food is incredible, and I can bridge the gap by bringing a camera. The R100-500 is beyond the legal limit but the security guy knows me and just smiles as I go through.

Also from 2015, a 9 hour KC-135 flight from Mildenhall to Estonia to refuel deployed A-10s, after emailing some formations we requested for photos I was really pleased how this one worked out. Photos made it in Combat Aircraft magazine as well as a calendar and are on the walls of the squadron's HQ at Whiteman AFB.
Unfortunately my photography days are over as I'm now full time caring for my mother and can no longer get out, so I sold everything last year.
