Arizona invaders (#0823)

Driving across what seemed like a very empty part of the desert, I started to see odd specks in the sky in the distance. As I got closer, it looked like they were hang gliders and I thought it an odd spot for sport jumping. As I got closer, there was more and more of them, and it was apparent they were parachutists. My mind jumped to wondering if we were being invaded somehow, but then the guy in the pickup truck passed me nonchalantly, so I guessed we weren't. Getting back on the road, I soon spotted signs for 'no stopping' and driving at 25mph, which is very slow for a desert road. Then I came upon a large landing field -- what I was seeing was military training.
