The only good thing from our dog getting old is that he doesn’t hear as well anymore so fireworks and gun shots don’t bother him nearly as much as they used to.
When we drove out to Yellowstone a couple of summers ago one thing I noticed was that all the entrance ramps to the interstate had gates that could be closed to block access when the weather gets bad. Also signs that come on when they close it down.
It was worse here than earlier this month when SNE got it bad. The pics are at the golf course this afternoon. Usually you have a nice view of the mountains off the first tee (top photo). Those trees are at the end of the first hole. The sun was pretty red too.
It was a LearJet. And as others said, it was Payne Stewart, who was the US Open Champion at the time.
