Trivia:

This is a reference to the JFK-LBJ duo, who were known as the Austin-Boston Axis. LBJ, of course, was a local and that phrase likely still had residual local cultural resonance at that time.

It was used again in 1988 for Dukakis-Bentsen.

Great pictures deerhoof and riverranchdrone! Can’t decide whether I like the view from the west, or the view from the airport more.

I finally was able to get my drone downtown after being so busy that past few weeks. Charged my batteries last week but they discharged before I flew and did not have much battery life left in them. Was able to take two photos.
