Our time in Columbus








We have been spending allot of time with Wayne & Barbara. We went over to her mother's house twice and we met some of the next generation of Millers.

The company was great and the food delicious. I'm not much for swimming pools, as most of you know, but Brenda and Barbara and her mother went into the pool both times we were there.

Yesterday we went to the National Air Force Museum in Dayton. The museum is huge as you can imagine. They have airplanes from the Wright Brothers plane all the way up to & including the F22.

They have a B52 in one hangar along with a multitude of other modern AF planes. There are a lot of aircraft hanging from the ceiling. In another hangar there is a B2 bomber. It is huge. I have never seen one, other than on TV or in pictures, WOW. There were many other planes within this same hangar. There are 3 hangar type buildings attached to each other with walkways. All of areas are used as exhibit areas. There is even an area dedicated to Bob Hope. What a great tribute to a man who dedicated so much of his life entertaining our service people.

Later today, we are going to meet some more of the Miller family.

Tomorrow we are leaving, going East, but not sure of the destination as of yet. Brenda and I will discuss this later this morning.



Ta ta for now

The Wright Patterson museum is fantastic and Free. That's the best part. We really enjoyed it when we visited a few years ago. It wasn't open when we lived in Cincinnati so it took us awhile to visit it after we had left.
