The Airforce Academy

Monday night we got a call from one of Mom's long-time family friend. She called to say she was coming to town and was wondering if we could come get her at the airport. We picked Gwen up and headed out to the Airforce Academy where her daughter Mandy is an incoming freshman.
Our plan was to try and get a look at Mandy. She wasn't quite finished with basic training, so we couldn't talk with her, but we thought maybe we'd get a look.
The planes with parachutes jumping out sort of distracted us.

Then we got distracted by the jet...

...and then by another jet! It is a very distracting place.

Finally we headed up to the visitors' center where we could see the cadets marching. No Mandy. Bummer!

At least we got to see lots of planes. Thanks for hanging out with us, Gwen!
