All right, that was interesting....

Just came out of a brief midmorning doze (hey, it's the Fourth of July) to the sound of an unusually loud and long-lasting jet engine ZOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!! going by somewhere overhead.

Between the doze-daze and the peculiar geography of my apartment (ground floor of a three-story building, surrounding trees in back, neighboring buildings in front), I couldn't get to a window soon enough to see what it might have been, but I am pretty darned curious about what that serious a jet was doing flying over metropolitan Portland this morning. As far as I know, we don't have any airshows going on nearby....
