Same here......cutting the grass; but I thought I caught a glimpse of a B2
as I ran upstairs for a much needed "break" :-)

I live just north-east of Indianapolis and low-and-bohold I saw a B2 low
and slow over my house probably at 3000 fedt or so. First time I have
ever seen on in person. Pretty impressive. But for 1,000,000 AMU's each
they should be impressive. I wonder how much jet-a they used doing the
flyby?

Probably none that they would not have burned that day doing something else.

Why do men's hearts beat faster, knees get weak, throats become dry,
and they think irrationally when a woman wears leather clothing?
Because she smells like a new truck.
