The C-17 Globemaster III and the Fourth of July

On our way to Tom and Lori's to celebrate the 4th, Jeri and I made a short detour and stopped at the Angels Stadium in Anaheim to watch the C-17 Globemaster III do a fly by over the stadium. It was sight to behold.  I see planes take off every day from the Long Beach Airport but I an still in awe every time I see a C-17 fly by. I know I take it for granted because I work on them and see them every day but watching the C-17 fly over the Angels Stadium yesterday reminded me of how proud I am to be a small part of the program.

Tacos, Birthday Cake and Cars

Jeri and I spent the day with our son in law Tom, daughter Lori and our grandkids, Sidney and Trevor,  this past Sunday. Saturday was Jeri's birthday and we were invited for some of Tom's famous homemade tacos, and cake and ice cream.  At my request Tom brought out all his cars and showcased them for Jeri and I.

His collection includes a 1947 Plymouth Coupe, a 1960 Impala Coupe, a 1961 Impala Sedan and a 1972 Chevelle SS (my favorite).  All have been entered in car shows in and around Orange County, California
