Irregular Air Traffic - Identified

I had just gotten to work and was outside with a co-worker having a smoke and admiring the clouds, bullshitting about the weather and the season when she noticed it first and asked what it was. She thought it was a single craft but i was quick to notice it was 2 separate craft in a tight formation, to my surprise they were 2 Boeing B-1B Lancers. The nearest bases are Barnes Air National Guard 103rd Fighter Wing (F-15s) and Westover Air reserve Base housing the 43rd Airlift wing. If I recall correctly there are no B1 Wings on the East coast. The Bombers were flying high at typical airliner height, with no after sound, heading from East to West.

This is not a UFO reporting but like my description just irregular air traffic
