And for me to think of the added nuisance of helicopters flying overhead, looking for suspects and shining their searchlights in your bedroom windows in the wee hours of morning...Yes, I remember. Now it's the light of gas wells flaring (flames) and the roaring thunder of gas and air, permeating the atmosphere with its jet engine sound, coming out from over 1 mile below the earth's surface,. And the hope that all goes well.... In either case, nothing can be done. -- Edited on 11/30/11 1:45 AM -- ------ "We don't impose our rhythm on Nature. The key is to respect and live within Her."

Wonder what they thought as they looked down in our yards seeing us all staring up at them. For me.. its the sirens I hate.. when and if any cops bother to show up.. the dogs hate the sirens.. and begin wailing.. talk about ruining the peace and quiet.. Whereas the sound of the helicopter blades takes me back to our military days.. as sounds relaxing to me. Miss the jet engines too btw.. Darn. now I am homesick.

Not to mention we don't live that far from Aberdeen Proving ground and Martin state airport where they do practice flights etc. We also live behind a police station and firehouse so we are hearing sirens all the time. And they use our street as a get through to the main streets sometimes. ------ quiltingwolf.blogspot.com

The city had some ultra quiet helicopters, so if you were sound asleep when something started happening, you could spontaneously wake up with a huge spotlight shining on you in bed. It didn't really happen that often, but when it did . . . ------ Marilyn January 2009 to January 2010 81 yards out and 71yards in January 2010 to the present 106.7 yards out and 146.5 yards in.
