We live very close to an Air Force base, an International Airport, and a National Guard Base.
The night sky has been filled with Fighter Jets.
At dusk it was very difficult to see them but there is no doubt they are up there, the sound gives them away.
As the sky darkens you begin to see them, the lights of white, green and red flying through the dark sky, against the stars and moon. They zoom at incredible speeds and the sounds they leave behind are earth shaking.
We have not seen them before at night,as least for the hours they have been there tonight.
Are they dancing in the night, getting ready for the Superbowl? Practicing their moves, dips and turns?
We have been warned that they will be practicing their "Interception" flight plans tomorrow. Maybe they are getting an early start tonight.
It may be 10 minutes "as the fighter jet flies" from here to Phoenix!
They are beautiful against both the bright blue skies of day and the dark, star lit skies of night. I never thought I would think that Fighter Jets could be so breath taking.........
