Air force base

Forgot to mention, the one cool thing I saw in Georgia was an air force base. I stopped to get gas and heard a giant roar over head. The gas station was right on the take off path of the base, along with probably a really terrible trailer park given the noise. "The 'noise' you here is the sound of freedom." said the sign at the base entrance. I wanted to stop and watch some fighter jets land (which were landing about every 3 minutes) but the land next to road had big no trespassing property of US government signs and the fence line was patrolled. So I figured not a got place to stop and try to take pictures of the f18 unless I wanted a visit from the MP.
