Always remember this that mouse was probably as afraid of her as she was of it. Just like when you are confronted by a Grizzly or Black Bear in the woods. Just try telling that to the bear as it's gnawing on your leg!
The NFL Season is upon us!
The dangerous is a little exaggerated. I think Leclerc did a great job.

Hope the forecast rain holds off, as it's a great line-up.
bummer just looked at forecast
Collings bomber tour stopped at Worcester, Mass. this weekend. Saw the new additions to the fleet (TF-40N Warhawk, P-38L, and F6F-3N Hellcat). Pixs to follow. Took a ride in the B-24, sat in the P-38, and was told they're giving me one of the original WW2 track links of our Panther Ausf A at the AHM.

Was out working in Chino close to Planes of Fame this morning, heard a plane comming overhead, looked up and there was a B29. It was really, really low. Beautiful. A very impressive aircraft.
And if that wasn't lucky enough about 4 hours later on my 3rd load, I'm driving through Yorba Linda( which is about 10 miles west of and over the hills from Chino) I look up and there it is again( at least I asume it's the same one).
Got a picture of it the 2nd time( although the first time would have been alot better as it was alot lower/ closer if I'd have thought about it quicker) and I'll post it if I can figure out how to zoom in on the plane and then post it on the site.

Oh man, I just realized I posted that in the wrong thread. Should have been in what cheered you up today and I'm not sure how to move it. Oh well. You get the idea.

In Nov 2002 there was an article in Aviation History about VPB-109 and a combat between two of the unit PB4Y-2 Privateers and a dozen George II fighters. A friend of mine, Bob Berry, was the radio operator in one of the Privateers and his personal experiences were featured in that article.
I though the artwork Jack Fellows created for the article was breathtaking from the moment I saw it. I always wanted a copy and yesterday, after talking to Bob Berry about scanning the original article for him so he could give copies to friends and relatives, I stumbled onto the fact that a limited number of prints of the artwork are being sold. I ordered two, one for Bob Berry and one for myself. I'll get his copy framed and take it to him as a Christmas present. He is 94 years old now, and he is going to love it!

Nice print, and a very kind and thoughtful gesture.
