Wow, what a story!
Martin Caidin’s book about the Flying Fortresses was impressive. I’m thinking now I need to go find a copy and re-read it...

Quiet night...although, I’m going to need to go rustle up some grub here in a minute.

A bowl of soup sounds good, with some wheat thins and cheese...

Plan ‘B” was quicker, and maybe better.
Nana made up some Green Chile Burritos before she left - that and a beer hits the spot!
