Impromptu Air Show 2025-05-25 - Shelbyville, KY - Photo by Pen. Sometimes to enjoy an air show, you have to travel to a big city, like Cambpellsville or Louisville, fight a snarl of traffic to find a distant parking space, trudge across dozens of acres or city blocks carrying a cooler and lawn chairs, and then wait for hours for the planes you want to see appear overhead for a few minutes. On other lucky occasions, an air show will just appear overhead while you're enjoying a pleasant walk in the park. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Travel: Kodachrome Basin State Park, 1 of 2 2025-05-25 - Kane County, Utah - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com. Robert writes, "Kodachrome is often overlooked by vacationers mainly due to its close proximity to Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks. So if you want to escape the large crowds and take it easy for a day, this is the park to visit. It is known for sedimentary pipes and sandstone spires (like this one in the photo), nice family-friendly trails, and of course, colorful rock formations. The Park's website states: 'There are nearly 70 sandstone spires, ranging from 6 to 170 feet tall. Additionally, there are 67 sedimentary pipes in the park and surrounding land.' We didn't spend as much time as we would have liked, nor take any of the hikes at the Park. The energy we were reserving would be used for hiking Willis Creek Slot Canyon and possibly some hiking in Bryce Canyon on this same day."
