Thanks Joe! The lawn was immaculate 24 hours before this shot, but it is Fall. The kids helped me inflate Snoopy and the Sopwith on Wednesday night after dinner. I'm a glutton for punishment, I light our tree and style it, with Sheila overseeing design and symmetry from different angles around the room. Tonight I'm stumped on the family room mantle but a trip to Restoration Hardware tomorrow after church should break my "designers block".
Once it is all worthy of the talented eyes that reside here, I'll shoot it like it should be shot and post a few.

Guys and girls, anyone has a Dell XPS 13 9360?
I don't have that specific Dell model. I just replaced my 8 year old previous Dell laptop with a Dell refurbished Latitude 5280 - just right for my evening noodling on the sofa. My old machine is not broken and I'm prepping it prior to giving it to a new home. My experience with refurbished Dell laptops has been great.

About RIAT18, a month ago I went to their website to check FRIAT, all were sold out!!!! Crazy.
Any ideas about other (reasonable) tickets to check since FRIAT is no more an option?
Jim, please do not tell me that you are attending this year!
FRIAT Always sells pretty quickly, but this year's seems to be setting records due to anticipation of the 100th Anniversary festivities. The FRIAT packages went on sale on a Tuesday and were sold out by the same week's Thursday. If you THINK you might be going the following year, the only way to get good seats in FRIAT is to line up outside the enclosure on the Thursday morning of this year's show to get your hands on a low numbered pre-order form for next year's show.
At this point any enclosure that you can get tickets too is going to be a good bet, but you're going to be out of luck for anything other than day to day Park & View tickets for the before and after days.
RIAT is always significantly larger on Farnborough years. Combine that with the 100th anniversary and I think you'll see some truly interesting participation next year. I would say if you followed along with the Red's tour at the end of their 2016 season you would be able to take some stabs at what might come...there's talks of China bringing something over, the UAE team (which I won't take a stab at spelling), Saudi Hawks, there's talks of the Greek F-4's flying (although that talk surfaces every year), etc...can't wait for the confirmations to start.
