As the month ends, so does my tribute to the Thunderbirds.
I couldn't resist including this picture with the speed limit sign. Needless to say, it didn't apply to them. (And, if you're wondering what the equipment in the foreground is, it's a combination of tracking, recording and communication. There's also an announcer who describes the formations the planes will be making and a sound system playing music before, during and after the show.)
If you're ever in Wyoming in late July, I recommend Frontier Days. And, with some luck, the budget for the Thunderbirds will be reinstated next year. At least I hope so.
