The Airshow Guy

Photography by: Shawn Yost

The semi-annual show at Selfridge returned in 2009. The poor weather and cloudy skies did not deter thousands of Michgan residents from pouring onto the field to watch the show. Although the weather did not work out the entire weekend, I had a wonderful time with some old friends, and a great afternoon with my Father.
