Andy and our friend, Shawn, took John and Laura to the 24th Annual Salute to Veterans Airshow. They all had a great time despite the oppressive heat and a bit of sunburn. Laura’s favorite part of the airshow was seeing the F/A-18 Super Hornet jet fighter and the sky divers. John’s favorite part was the Lima Lima Flight Team and the F/A-18 Super Hornet jet fighter. Laura watched intently as one of the Canadian Skyhawks Sky Diving team repacked his parachute. John just enjoyed everything despite saying, “We can go now. It’s over.” after the F/A-18 had made a few passes. He was done with the loud noise! John does have his picture in the Columbia Missourian newspaper (his is one of five photos) while watching the F/A-18. He was covering his ears and gazing skyward. It was another successful trip to the Salute to Veterans Airshow! If any of you are ever in town over Memorial Day, we’ll take you. It’s quite an impressive experience.
