Snow Day
December 21, 2010, 1:49 pm - James Farrer
I'm not quite sure what happened but I think the weather forecasters mixed up the so called "Snowmaggedon" with the storm yesterday and today. We easily got a foot and a half of snow in the last 36 hours. Schools were closed and we spent several fulfilling hours shovelling and playing in the snow. My snow bank is officially taller than I am.
After we took this picture I added another 6 or 8 inches to the top.

A coworker showed me these comparisons. Very helpful for me.

Chopper in flight on Google Maps
December 11, 2010, 10:15 am - James Farrer
I ran across an article talking about an airplane graveyard and as I was looking around on Google Maps I came across this image. How cool is that? A Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion (as near as I could figure) in flight. I'd say it's a pretty good picture considering it was taken from space.
Click here to see it in Google Maps.
Nearby on the ground are retired F-4's, F-18's, F-14's, F-111's, B-1 Bombers, C-130's, H-53's, H-60's, and many others including a Lockheed D-21/M-21 auxilliary engine that was used on the SR-71 Blackbird for added get up and go. Pretty awesome!
