Who said you need to fly to enjoy planes?

One of my favorite things to do in the summer is going with my dad to the Salt Lake airport to watch planes land and take-off.  We have found that Sunday night around 7 P.M. is the busiest and best time to go watch.

There is a bike path at the end of the runway that we have been walking for more than half my life.  It's fun to just go out with either my sisters and my dad, or just my dad, and to just walk and talk, and listen to the jets approaching and then hearing the wispy noise that follows after the plane touches the ground.

Even though I am no plane expert I feel like a plane authority after watching planes come in for at least half my life.

If you ever need a family home evening activity or just an activity for any day, I suggest going out and walking at the airport.  It's more than than it would seem.

Well, now that I'm done blogging for the day I am going to lay back, put my feet up, and listen to the Fray and U2 concert from my living room.  I'm so glad I didn't pay $30-$250 to go the Rice-Eccles stadium when the sound travels all the way over to my house.
