Something interesting that I forgot to mention a couple days ago. On my flight from Minneapolis to Charlotte I was looking out the window as we took off, and not really paying much attention. Then I realized that we were going in the direction that we would be passing close to my parents' house. I got my bearings and sure enough, in the field behind my grandpa's house, I see my dad combining soybeans. When I got to Charlotte I called and asked him how the beans behind grandpa's were yielding, and he starting telling me about and after 10 seconds, he realized that I had no way of knowing which field he was in that afternoon.
Also, on that same flight at one point I looked out the window and we were directly over Chicago Motor Speedway. Only a little later we flew directly over Notre Dame, I could see the football stadium and that gold topped arena. Then we flew right over Indianapolis, where I could see Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Lucas Oil Stadium. Lastly, we flew right over Cincinnati, where I could see the Bengals stadium and the Red's ballpark. I've never seen so many different recognizable buildings on one flight.
