today my dad and I went down to the VP fair here in down town st. louis and there are like all kinds of those blow up kids rides stage where that girl raven and the black eyed peas performed last night. well all 3 days there is an air show and we went and saw the one today. there were only 3 planes they came, we didnt catch the good one in the morning. but there was a harrier(sp?) an f18 and something else i forget. but even though thre were 3 planes it was really cool. the harrier came right over the mississippi river and hovered there for a good 5-10 minutes. you could see the pulses from his exhaust in the water and it looked awesome. the best part is that they were maby at half throttle and they all came from behind us and were out in front of us a couple hunderd feet before we even herd them. i cant only imagine these guys going full speed. theyd be outa site before you even hear them. any one else have any kind of fairs or festivals going on for the 4th?
