Other than that, just fun times at the museum this weekend. Got to meet a WWII veteran who took part in D-Day and was one of Gen. Patton’s drivers in France.

Very cool! Did he tell any stories?

Howdy, Allegra.

He was a very cool gentleman and a character. He did tell a few stories and was a bit repetitive. At 97, his mind isn’t as sharp as in earlier years. But he remembered a lot and teared up several times when talking about the war. Made us tear up too.

He enjoyed his visit to the museum and we thoroughly enjoyed having him there.
