I forgot to add..GREAT PICTURES you took!
I'm marking this so I can post pictures later when I have pictures of the big horseback ride I am going on today.

That's the plane.
I guess I was just trolling for some freeper love. Sorry my significant other had to force you to look. Tell Dom to call me.
My daughter.

Spent the day flying formation with a few other airplanes. Tried to have someone take pictures from the ground - but... didn't work.
We had a P41, P51, T28, T6, B17, B24, C130 (coast guard) and a DC3 (same as above) doing low passes - so we joined in ...
What a great way to celebrate our nations; freedom! The sound of freedom sounds a lot like a P51...
;-)

That looks like fun!
Glad you were able to share!

Excellent Pics Miss Dasher.
Yesterday we went to the Boeing Museum of Flight for a Memorial Day Service. Had 3 WWII aces as the guests of honor. The local ROTC boys presented colors, a military band played the National Anthem, they read the 108 names of Washington soldiers that died in since 911. Played taps.
It brought tears to my eyes.
Also, if you are ever up this way, you've gotta go to the Museum of Flight. Very cool.
Round of golf?
Nah! BBq...Ride on a Motorcycle...
It was okay..Could of been somewhere better..(
I went camping.
Is Southern Utah too far for you to fly over and flap your wings? I think you may have had more fun than I did....but I had fun.
I had a blast!
Had friends in from out of town - flew, flew and flew.
Had plenty to eat and drink...
But - not one barbeque!
could have been somewhere better missyme???????......like maybe Northern Calif.....*wink*......LOL>......?
You never know...Napa sure sounds like a winner!
