World War I Era Planes

Dayton, OH  2026

There was so much to see and read I can hardly do justice to the museum with some photos here.  These are some planes from the early 1900's that caught my eye.

 

Early Aviation

Dayton, OH  2026

The exhibits in the museum trace the history of aviation from the earliest Wright Flyers all the way through to the present.  

 

Memorial

Dayton, OH,  2026

This is one of many memorials in a park-like setting outside of the Air Force Museum.  This one commemorates those pilots who flew over the Himalayas in the China, Burma, India Theater in WW II.

 

National Air Force Museum

Dayton, Ohio, 2026

We had some time on our hands after spending our first night in Dayton, OH.  I had visited the National Air Force Museum over 50 years ago, and decided to visit again before heading off to Michigan.  The museum has grown over the last 50 years and is well worth a visit if you're in the Dayton area.  You could easily spend a couple of days here and not see everything.  Warning!  Photos of airplanes will be featured in the coming days. 

 

Crooked Road

Lambsburg, Virginia, 2026

We recently took a road trip to visit friends and see some of my old stomping grounds in Ohio and Michigan.  This was taken along  northbound I-77  in Virginia at our first rest stop at the Virginia Welcome Center.
 

VOTE!

Waxhaw, NC  2026

I can't tell anyone for whom they should vote.  I can only encourage everyone to get out and vote and may the best candidates win.  Early voting here started Oct 15 and from what I've read, the turnout for early in person voting has been way ahead of previous mid term elections.
