Wednesday Air Force Academy tour
Today we had the opportunity to have a visit to the Air Force Academy with a special friend, Dave Gaw, who had authorization to walk around the campus where most people can not go. Dave was graduate of the Academy back in 1970 and gave us some really interesting information on the inter working of the academy. We asked lots of questions and he gave us lots of great answers. Sometimes the answer was... we did not do that when I was here. We did get to see the beautiful chapel, the huge dinning room for 4,000 cadets, the athletic areas for the teams and intramural sports, classrooms, etc. It was a really special time and we felt special that we were walking around the cadets while most visitors were only seeing a few things. We were treated special. For lunch we headed over to 5 Guys Burgers... need I say more... this lead to a time of going back to the Imrie's and resting our bodies and hoping all of the burgers and fries would settle quickly. We had great discussions today but not much of the world problems were actually solved, but it is always fun to talk about them.... maybe tomorrow they will be solved, we will let you know if anything worth sharing. Tonight we went to training for our fly fishing adventure tomorrow. We are excited about this but the weather is expected to turn a bit chilly, high of 42 with 60% chance of rain and snow, 10-20 mph winds but we are ready to tackle the elements..nothing will stop the Man-cation boys. We are ready for the elements and the trout better be ready as well, although we will probably just let them go back into the water...oh of course it is the law. Hopefully we will catch some.
