Scene In The Sky: 07/17/11 Zeppelin "Eureka" Above Chaska, MN

I stepped outside for a quick smoke just a few minutes ago and I kept hearing this wierd "whirring" noise. I turned around to look and see what the hell it was - and saw THIS, the world's largest airship, the Eureka, branded with the Farmers Insurance logo, coming straight at me! It made a few passes, hovering above our building for a few minutes before finally heading back towards the Flying Cloud Airport in Eden Prairie where, all this weekend, they've been having their annual Air Expo. For a mere $375.00 you could hitch a 45-minute ride in this monster.
