Actually, considering which way the wind is coming from it has to fly over work.  Maybe I will just stand out side and watch.

I didn't get outside in time to see it.  But the warbird mass arrival right after was amazing.  Felt like a WWII movie.

That's cool. I once got to see Fi Fi (The Confederate Air Force's B-29, AFAIK it's the only one still air worthy) fly over my house. I can only imagine whay a sky full of radial aircraft engines sounds like.
