We saw one. I assumed it had something to do with President Trumps visit tomorrow.

Came right over our house too. Wish I could have got outside with my camera sooner. This is the best I could do...

Default Helicopters

An Osprey and two VH-92 Marine One helicopters on a pre-flight for tomorrow’s Presidential visit to the Villages.
