The swan song of Memphis In May festivities is the Sunset Symphony. It is this Saturday in Tom Lee Park. I will have to miss it unfortunately. But for those of you who think it's just a symphony performance, think again. There will be a 60 minute air show executed by the Commemorative Air Force as a tribute to World War II. The show features World War II historic airplanes; Corsair, Hawker Sea Fury, Stearman and Russian Yak. The Four Tops will also be performing and there will be a fireworks show. What will I be doing instead? I will be sweating in a 5K in Mississippi because my sister told me I had to. Incidentally, I'm not sure how Turkey fits into the Symphony but I'm sure there are remnants of the honored country folded in there somewhere.

You never stop having fests in Memphis, do you ? I am jealous.
The fireworks look great. I met once with a professional of fireworks on my way to Serbia, He was from Austria and presented himself as one of the leaders in this business, who knows, may be he will be behind the scene on Sunday ?
If you happen to come to Geneva on August 15, there is the national fest and you have a very interesting Air show over the lake.
I assume that the air show would be over the mighty Mississipi ?
