“We are so lucky”

in the late evening on Wednesday, the 1st of June 2005 by Chad

That’s what the guy next to me said at lunch today.

You see, at what other job, in what other town, can you possibly have this situation. Walk right outside of your office and grab a burger off the grill. Some macaroni or potato salad. A piece of watermelon or an ice cream.

And then go sit down in the grass to eat, while watching the Air Force Thunderbirds perform literally right over your head.

A few hundred feet over your head. As they do their demonstration show in honor of the Air Force Academy graduates celebrating their hard work right across the street. On an absolutely beautiful day.

Yeah, I’m the lucky one…
