| Wings over Addison 2008 It wasn't an airshow but it was called a "fly day". Here are a few pics from the event this weekend in Addison, Texas (just north of Dallas). They were also offering rides in a Stearman for $150 or a Texas for $225. Yes, I should have, but I didn't.

| We had a real nice time. They were firing blanks in the Sherman, which were louder than hell. After the show, we went to the Holocost museum in Dallas, which I have never been to. It was sobbering to say the least. My wife and I walked out and weren't really even talking. If your in Dallas any time soon, it's just around the corner for the school book depository were President Kennedy was killed.

| Got to meet a couple of pilots, who were real nice guys. I thanked them both for their service and told them how much I appreciated it. I thought Col Callahan was going to cry.
