When we pulled up the girl in the booth just waved us through.



A little OT - I rode to see the Blue Angels a few months ago, and motorcycles were waved to the front of the military base, with preferential parking. Nice.

Even more OT - Seeing the Blue Angels (my first but not last time) is kind of like seeing the Grand Canyon - something everyone ought to see at least once. As the announcer pointed out "The military isn't too concerned about noise abatement issues." When they fly through at "I can count the rivets on the belly of the plane" low altitude at around what seems like mach .99, with their wing tips 3 feet or less apart, it will part your hair down the middle, and if you have no hair, it will grow back.
