Happy New Year

So we started our new year morning out by going to Pasadena to watch the flyover a couple of blocks from the parade. While we were waiting Eddie and I were talking about how cool it would be if it was the B-2 escorted by F-18s. Well after waiting for about 15 minutes after the parade started, someone drove by and told us that the flyover wasn't happening until the end of the parade. So we decided to come home. We were surprised at the end of the parade when 4 F-18s did the flyover. We were half right!!!
We were going to go down to the same place we went last year to watch the flyover for the Rose Bowl, but we were taking a nap and didn't want to get up. We started watching the pre-game stuff on TV. The F18s did the flyover. I told Eddie now lets go outside and watch them fly by. He thought I was nuts. We went outside and I started walking across the street. He asked where I was going...I said to get closer. He really thought I was nuts. He really didn't think we would see anything. Sure enough. I turned back around and there they were!!!! I told him I knew we could see them. He didn't believe me. Hello! I've lived here for how many years??? Before they built the houses across the street we could see the fireworks at the Rose Bowl on the 4th of July!!! I knew what direction to look and everything!!! It was pretty cool, even though they were in Pasadena and we were in Pico Rivera!
Oh..for those of you who don't know the big whoop about these planes. I worked on the B-2 and my dad worked on the F-18. He was an aerospace engineer. I just did paperwork! If you missed the flyover, there are some pretty cool videos on YouTube!
