I think my Brother and I flew into there back in the 60’s.

I recall there were some old smokestacks next door painted white and orange. Made it easy to locate from the air.

It's been a loooooong time, so I hope by old brain isn't playing tricks on me.

That’s the airport.

The Whitmans not only owned it and lived in a neat home on top of the hill at the airport, they also produced concrete punping equipment.

I haven’t seen Nelson aince the 50s when I quit building and racing cars to get married.

I didn’t start flying until the late 70s but knew Nelson when he was a hotrodder in the early and mid 50s.
