today's drive was challenging and not much fun once I left the Virginia country and got into suburban/urban Virginia and Maryland.
But nothing broke and gas was relatively cheap, filling up for 3.39 for regular. I topped off with premium when I got here since it was under 4 bucks.
The V10 Ford engine makes an odd noise I'm hoping is not detonation. I've tried every kind of fuel in it, makes the same noise, so the heck with it, might as well use regular. It's what they call for. I need to ride with a mechanic. It's under what I think is full vacuum. Vacuum is making something make a funny noise and when I either speed up or take my foot off the gas it goes away. like a hissing, pulsing noise, but not a mechanical tap or knock. EGR valve? Engine runs fine. But maybe it could run better.

pretty cool here, this area is pretty secluded since most folks don't want to live near the serious military installations here, unless they work here. There is all kinds of nasty stuff going on here.
zoom in on these pictures. And lots of big booms

The Aberdeen proving ground has its own peculiar buildings.
I think if Popgadget landed his plane on either of these runways, he would need more than a lawyer. We'd all have to make bail...
