9-21 USAFA

My brother (minutely seen in the first picture below with his fiance) is a 1990 graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy.  Much of my childhood was spent visiting him during Parents' Weekends and events such as that.  If you have ever had the privilege to visit the academy, you know how picturesque it is snuggled up against the mountains with acres upon acres of rolling, tree-covered hills.  In a word- it's beautiful.   (And as I say this, in all honesty, you must know that I am a 1996 graduate of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy!  Beauty is what it is, all rivalry aside.)  During a recent visit, we toured the academy grounds.  The USAFA chapel is infamous for its artistic design.  It is amazing.
