No longer on the river and, again, an empty nester. Back to living on Fleming Island and making some more friends!

The black helicopters are here!!!

Last evening, right outside my windows, I heard the roar of a helicopter flying VERY close. Twice it zoomed from behind the building from the west and rattled my windows, causing me to leap to my feet to see what was going on. The third time, I was prepared with my camera in hand and took this photo of it hovering just over the surface.

This is normally done further out in the deeper water and not near the shore, and made me think that it’s finally happened---the black helicopters are here!!! First, the government taking over the airwaves on Wednesday and now, the helicopters circling…

Putting aside my conspiracy theories for a moment, I found out today there was a wedding going on at The Club, a pilot of a helo, and his buddies came by to give him a ‘salute’! Now that makes sense and has me breathing a sigh of relief! All is well with the world…
