March 8 2011

Saturday 5 of us went to the local airport. They were having their Cactus Fly In. It was antique planes and war birds.  The problem with the antique planes is a whole lot of them were made in 1946. I was born in '46 so they can't be antique. From talking to people the show this year was not as good as last year's or the year before. The price of aviation fuel could be a big factor.

This pilot looked familiar but he was not very talkative.

This plane not only showed how many bomb runs it did but also the 2 movies it was in.
There is no way that I could fit into that belly turret.

The daylight you see is the rear gunner compartment. There is no easy way to get back there.



We went to Dwight and Donna's for a spaghetti dinner. They are camped right on the fence line of the park. This is the area that I run Dot. A lot of people feed the birds so there are a lot of quail and other creatures there. I was not able to get a shot of the Road Runners that hang out there yet. Hope to be successful later.

                                                             Got a shot of a great sun set.
