A Few Pix from Our Trip

We've been back from the mainland for a couple of weeks now, but it doesn't seem like it's been that long. Here are a few pix from our visits to Great Falls Park, the Air and Space Museum, and Shenandoah National Park. Others (Court, Anna and David) have included more and better pictures, but these are special, as my camera was broken, and I couldn't see what I was getting!

Great Falls is a beautiful spot on the Potomac not far from the Roosevelt Bridge.  Hadn't known it was there, so had never been before.  Very pleasant spot.

Only took one pic at the museum -- the Blackbird spy plane, successor to the U-2 of Gary Powers fame.  Way back when, I was told the plane leaked fuel like a sieve while on the ground but sealed up under the low pressure conditions at high altitude.

Shenandoah Park was another place we'd never been -- at least off the highway.  The hike was beautiful, even though I didn't get so hot I wanted to jump in the cold water.

We had a wonderful time.  Thanks to the Taylors, Rob & Anna & keiki, Whit & Jim, & Court for making it nigh unto perfect.
