Ever since then I have longed to attend another performance but for a multitude of reasons was never able to make it - mostly due to distance. This year the Brunswick NAS in Maine hosted the show and that is only 3 1/2 hrs from me.
Finally after 40 plus yrs I was going to actually make a performance. My son and I both adjusted our work schedules. Paid $100 for a hotel room so we could get there early and spent about another $100 on food and gas. The first part of the air show was wonderful but paled in comparison to the performance I remembered as a child.
Then after 40 yrs and 6 hours of waiting the commentator announced that the Blue Angels had been grounded due to poor weather conditions from Hurricane Hanna.
I can't remember the last time I have been so disappointed.
