Quiet Day

We had a quiet Day today, after our morning Coffee and daily Bran Oat Muffin we went down in the Basement and I did 10 minutes on the Bike while My Honey worked out on the Pulleys !
  After showers we just relaxed and watched the Birds and sat with the Air Conditioners and Fans running, The Basement is nice and cool at 70 degrees, outside it was 88 degrees and 58% Humidity !
.
Sitting in my Recliner dozing on and off when I heard a rather loud noise and when looked out the window and saw a big Plane approaching !
.
.
Looking out my Window this was the first Plane I saw, It was rather loud but not unusual as we are right beside Fort Drum !
.
.
What was different today was there was another Plane right behind the first one, I think they are a C17 or C17A,  not sure !
.
.
These Planes are awesome, they go directly over the House enroute to the Airfield on Drum, not many here in our little village mind seeing them or the Jets that fly in and out or the Helicopters!  On a clear quiet night you can hear "Taps" and also "Colors" but we can not hear "Reveille" !
.
We went out on the back Deck and watched them come in and also could see them take off once they got above tree tops !
.
Got too Hot outside in the sun so in we came.    Had a good day !
.
Don't forget, Remember our Vets !

The planes bring back a lot of memories, I have bummed many military hops and the crews were always gracious even though very busy.
Enjoyed the photos and visit to your house as usual. Glad you have some exercise equip in the basement.. Imma gonna bring ours back to life when we leave the mountains.
Good to read you guys are doing good,
Love your way
