Chances are good that as I photographed them this past week these, if not two of the other 18 F-22 Jets based here, were the F-22 Jets subject of the below referenced encounter from this past week.
"Two American F-22 fighters intercepted three groups of Russian Tupelev jets as they entered the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) late Thursday night.
The Russian planes were in the (ADIZ) for around 5 hours and came within 50 nautical miles of Alaskan shores, according to a NORAD press release."
I collect all of the special holiday Lego sets and out up a whole display at my parents house every year. They release a new set or two each year and I’m a little behind so I need to catch up on past years before the new ones are released this year!
It’s like 1985 all over again! 🤣

Getting an early start on the week. Given that September is now officially here, it is harvest time.
Pictured are some just picked Japanese Green Peppers that we grew this summer which are known by their Japanese name of Shishito.
And here is a picture of shish kebobs I made for the students we were volunteer teaching in Japan last fall which were a big hit with the included and very flavorful Shishito Japanese Green Peppers.
Atop the Great Wall of China and on Tiananmen Square with its plethora of security cameras.
(As to the climbing of the Great Wall of China, It was pretty cool to learn from our guide that he had guided LeBron James and Nicolas Cage up this same route.
Having seen LeBron play when he was still in Cleveland and having been present as Nicolas Cage was acting in a movie here where I live, hearing this brought home how small this big world really is.)
And here is the backstory that goes with the above photos taken on Tiananmen Square as I related it in a text that I sent from China at the time:

Congratulations!
Those are no Idaho trout!
Fresh whole halibut is on sale here where I am at for a little over $10 a pound. That is well over $2,000 worth of fish right there.

Other side of the lake in southwest Michigan. This isn’t Lake Michigan in the picture though, it is an inland lake that I live on.

Approach into Anchorage down the Turnagain...
Different Denali view the next day.
My house is in that photo.
If you flew out on the North-South runway headed south back towards Turnagain Arm I probably heard you overhead! ✈️
Here I am waving up at you from my front yard.
I'll give you a wing-rock next time.

Mark Knopfler was a GREAT guitarist!
Use to be one in every town.
My first car was a 1965 Bel Air.

Some musical people are more than we see with their bands
Check out comedian Steve Martin, he is quite the banjo player.

Mine was a 1966 Bel Air.
The main difference in the 2 were the taillights.
