Where Will You Watch the Blue Angels?

Patch asks readers to weigh-in on the timeless debate: Where's the best place to watch the Blue Angels' annual show on Aug. 6 & 7?

It's the first weekend in August on Mercer Island, it's Seafair, and you know they're coming. In fact, they're already here.

The Blue Angels landed in Seattle this morning, over the next few days. The runs on both Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 6 - 7 from 12:45 - 2:40 p.m. 

They're so loud, in fact, that it's hard to do anything but watch the raw power of those U.S. Navy F/A-18 Hornets as they zoom overhead.
