Indy Air Show

After all of the rain on Saturday, we weren’t sure about our chances of making it to the Indy Air Show on Sunday. But, we decided to give it a whirl anyway and packed our cooler and blanket and headed out to Mt. Comfort Airport to see some airplanes doing tricks. Turns out that rain wasn’t our problem at all…it was the sun! Man, by the time we lugged our stuff out to the air field over all of the long, swampy grass and mud we were already tired!

We set up camp and chilled out for a bit watching the crazy Jelly Belly airplane doing flips and stalls. Next up was the super loud and super fast F18 Hornet. It was definitely the fastest plane out there and did some crazy rolls and climbs, but we were glad to see the Jelly Belly plane come out again and do more silly stunts, too. We probably watched 42,234 more planes come out and fly up, fly down, flip over, roll around, loop-the-loop, and land before we decided that we had enough sun and it was time to make the trek back to the car with all of our gear.

The wonderful air conditioning brought us back to life and, by the time we hit Indy, we were ready for some grub. We hit Red Robin and pounded some fries and sandwiches before making it back home. We topped off the day with some bike/scooter riding and then packed it in. We were so worn out that everyone fell right to sleep and didn’t move a muscle!
