Planes

My three least favorite days to live in Chicago have officially started - the annual Air & Water Show. (The cats, by the way, agree with me.)

If I'm in the Loop, it both looks and sounds like the planes are going to crash into the buildings. The "officials" issue reassurances that the planes are not allowed to "buzz" the skyscrapers, but I don't think the pilots bother to read those. If I'm at home, the planes on several of the routes turn right over our neighborhood - and it sounds like they're about 10 feet over our deck.

At least it's only three days, and the air show times are somewhat limited. I can make it to Sunday evening!
