Joel's plane ride

Today my hubby for Father's day & my son Joe for his 16th birthday went for a ride on a WW2 aircraft C-45 over our city ,hometown, and home. We could hear them fly overhead .We live close to the airport so we often see fun airplanes like this & B bombers flying overhead. What a fun day they had riding in history.

 Pilots & controls.

 The premier bomber of WWII,  FIFI is the last flying B-29 in existence. 

I love field trips! The boys came home pulled out their toy planes & began playing World War 2. They pulled out WW2 coloring books & books. Daniel asked to study WW2. What a fun way to learn & spark interest in American History. We all learned and had a great day with Popi & Grandma on our field trip. This is a great way to make history come alive.
