    Yes.

    And these pictures were taken yesterday. It hasn’t snowed in the Sierras in almost six weeks but 15 feet of snow in December helped.

    The Hoosac Tunnel (also called Hoosic or Hoosick Tunnel) is a 4.75-mile (7.64 km) active railroad tunnel in western Massachusetts that passes through the Hoosac Range, an extension of Vermont's Green Mountains. It runs in a straight line from its east portal, along the Deerfield River in the town of Florida, to its west portal in the city of North Adams.

    It is interesting to note that the Hoosac Tunnel is more than twice as long as Seattle's Highway 99 Tunnel which at 2 miles long is the longest vehicle tunnel in the contiguous United States. The longest vehicle tunnel in North America is the Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel that connects Portage to Whittier, Alaska. It is 2.7 miles long. The Alaska tunnel doubles as a Railroad Tunnel as well with cars alternating with trains

    OK, here is the entrance to the longest vehicle tunnel in North America from the Whittier side. It's 2.7 miles length were originally constructed as part of the World War II effort to provide access to the northernmost ice free port of Whittier.

    Note the train and vehicles jockeying for position to take their turns going through the tunnel.

    Does anyone know what the distance of the longest railroad tunnel is in the United States? The longest undersea railroad tunnel is the one that connects the Japanese Island of Honshu with Hokkaido.

    Air Force Major Major Kristin Wolfe stands in front of a F35 she will be flying in the pre-game flyover at Sunday’s Super Bowl

    Even if you don't like football, you gotta love the jets flyover during the National anthem.

    Interesting idea having a flyover at a stadium with a vinyl roof.

    I hold a registered trademark on specific type of numismatic medals struck by the US Mint that are linked to the POTUS. How can that be so?

    Long story short, I need to stomp on the gas pedal to get my side hustle going at full speed...
