Old Planes
I sprung Leo from kindergarten early so we could go visit a B-24 and a B-17 at the Beverly Airport. Here are some photos of the visit. They are part of the Collings Foundation tour. I don’t want to know any more about them, but the planes were cool. I liked seeing some of the 4000 feet of wire strung around pulleys to keep things moving in the right direction.
The B-24 "Witchcraft" (not the original "Witchcraft", actually)
Leo in the bomb bay — skinny people only allowed on these planes!
Big tail-thingies and a machine gun

Self portrait in the spinner of the B-24. You can see the B-17 on the side. You can also have a coffee table made from one of these.

King Leo! This was his idea for his party’s theme.

That Same Old Light
Well, actually, now it’s fall instead of spring, and it’s three and a half years later, but the light was almost identical. Thanks, house — you’ve been great to us!
