Visitors & Commemorative Air Force


B-29 Liberator FiFi
Marti & Terry arrived safe and sound Wednesday, and they're all having a good time.  Weather is cooperating and Donna & Marti are quickly whipping Terry into shape bicycling.  Too bad they have to leave so soon.

We took a Saturday visit with Judy & Greg to meet their daughter-in-law and see FiFi - the B-29.  Several more planes were there including the P-51 "The Brat III".  For those who read  
P-51 Mustang "The Brat III"
some of the more obscure aviation news, yes, this was the P-51 that experienced a landing gear issue Sunday.  Fortunately, that got resolved and all landed safe and sound.  Didn't learn a lot about the bi-planes, but they were neat, too.  More pictures are on my facebook page.

Well, we're on our last week here this season at Gulf Shores.  Somewhat sad, but it's gettin' time to leave.  Senior & snowbird discounts are over!


Current plans are to visit Bill & Debra this weekend, then head to Birmingham, AL Thursday.  We're there for a week, then over to Stone Mountain, GA for a week or so.  From there it's off to High Point, NC for a weekend and back in Fredericksburg on March 27th.  At least that's the plan until I break something.  Later, David
