Looks like it may be coming to an end.

I have been there many years, hard to believe it could be ending.

    Headed out first thing in the morning on my bike. I'm excited I got invited to attend by an old Navy friend who I haven't seen since 2003. So it should be fun to hook up with him during this.

    Those on the East Coast have you heard how many showed up for it. A friend just posted a Video of on lot just full and she said their were 4 other lots with more bikes. I would say from Events I've been to their were at least 100,000 in that lot.

    She is a Gold Star wife, A Navy Seal is providing her ride.

    I did try to look it up but can find little on it.

    What beautiful soundit must be! I used to sit on Pensacola Beach and you can hear it there also if the wind is cooperative.

    Ahh....you bring back memories but not from aircraft. Now that I don't live on a military installation more I miss the sight of parachute flares and the sounds of explosions coming from distant training areas where the artillery regiments were playing.
