Family Day
Sunday was family day at the base. The weather was gorgeous, sunny and cooler.
We headed over to the base right after church and met Brian at the guard house. There were so many families there, many with very young children.
We wandered around looking at all the interesting aircraft. The above photo is the new refitted LC-130 with 8-bladed props. It is so much quieter and I guess more powerful. Brian has been working very hard on the testing and promotion of this new design.
We took a walk through of one of the planes. No matter how many times we see it, the cockpit is still very impressive with its many, many switches and controls.
I just love the look of the Hercules.
They had a wonderful lunch for us with steak, pork, shrimp, burgers and hotdogs, in addition to many salads and veggies. We all had ice cream and some had shaved ice and cotton candy. We sure sugared them up for the day. It was all so yummy. For once, Dan said he was full.
We are so proud of our airman and it is always a pleasure to see where he works and the people he works with.
