Riding high with the KC-135

So this by far has been one of the coolest experiences I have had in my life. As the wife of a fighter pilot I have been so blessed to experience many cool things such as air shows, sitting in various aircraft, a high speed taxi ride in a F-15 and now I was able to witness the refueling of the 525 Bulldogs Raptors. Adam was flying out in the airspace on the other side of Alaska but this was still cool. Very cool.
