They were advertising an air show at Willow Grove Air Force Base, June 24-25, but I just googled it and it's actually this weekend. That's weird. Unless they postponed it till next weekend.
Also, Heineken must be sponsoring the event because after they wrote the date they wrote Heineken over and over and over.
It was cool to watch them. The planes themselves were up so high, they were barely visible.

My SIL was stationed at Willow Grove, but I thought it was a navy base. (?)

Not familiar with the first book.
The second I've seen but did not read.
There are so many books on the DaVinci Code, it's hard to know what ones are good.

This is the true story of the whalers and the ship that inspired it! It gets a little boring at spots (very technical), but overall its very, very good.

When we were in FL in February, there were skywriters every day promoting Jesus. I couldn't help but think that that money could have been better spent....

Snow cones or snowballs are made of shaved ice which is formed into a ball and is very firm. The flavor is then poured over the top.
As Connor said, in water ice the flavor and the ice are blended together into a sort of slush. You can almost drink it, but it is usually eaten with a spoon.

The Thunderbirds are scheduled not the Blue Angels.
Nothing about the info on the Willow Grove website matches what the sky writers wrote. :lol:
I used to enjoy air shows, but in recent years there have been too many accidents for me to feel comfortable at one.
Not my idea of fun anymore.
