It's been a busy day, so far. A story, mostly in pictures:
|
The local model airplane store, where I was transfixed by this six-foot-long B-25 Mitchell bomber. |
|
The full-size versions of these can be found at Lake Hood. |
|
Nice little Piper floatplane |
|
F-86 Sabrejet, upside down for some reason |
|
A very large mural in the mall hallway, showing Denali (tourists refer to it as Mt. McKinley, for some reason) |
|
And ending with lunch at our favorite Irish pub (O'Brady's) |
|
|
After lunch I put new weatherstripping on the bottom edge of the garage door. Not a major task by any means, but something that needed doing before any more rain makes its way inside.
Older Daughter is in the kitchen mulling a large pot of cider, and Mrs. Paul is prepping something wonderful for dinner.

Rev. Paul,
I love all of those model planes hanging from the ceiling. My husband would be like a kid in a candy store if he was there. I can imagine you were like a kid in a candy store too.
Apple cider, YUM!!!!!
Seems you all had a wonderful day! Hubby has built a few RC planes over the years - they take a long time to do.
No people in the mall or the pub it seems.
Why yes, Sandy. Yes, I was. :)
Chickenmom, it has been a very good day.
Preppy, I picked my moments carefully, and - especially in the model plane store - was aiming up at a fairly steep angle. That, and I edited out the heads of the other shoppers in those pix.
Very nice! Wish I could check the shops out.
Thanks, Kelly. If you ever make it up this way, I'd be happy to show you around. :)
