taps

We live a few miles from the Luke Air Base. It's pretty cool to watch the fighter jets fly around all the time. They usually fly in pairs really close together. It's pretty amazing! We are on the south end of the base so it's not as loud as I thought it would be since the planes can be loud but all the landing strip is on the north side of the base so we dont get that much noise. I read the other day in the little community paper that they turned the volume up on there scheduled bugle times. Since I usually wear earplugs I have never heard it but at 7 am this morning I was awaken with 'taps.' They also have a 5pm and 9pm song but it's to noisy around here at that time to hear it.
