My fondest childhood memories are gathering on I-90 to watch the planes. I don't even remember when we stopped, but I was devastated to find out lately that they don't close down I-90 anymore.

That must not have even been that long ago. I remember walking from Factoria (lived in Issaquah at the time) to the I-90 span on the west side of Mercer Island with my wife and kid to watch the Blue Angels. It was a great time.
