Despite a very rainy start to the morning and us deciding at one point that we would not go today (or basically this year because we are busy all day tomorrow), we finally made it out to the Salute to Veterans Airshow about noon. Are we glad that we did! Despite being windy, it was perfect weather – almost chilly! That is a far cry from past years where the temperature has been into the 90s and made even hotter by the tarmac concrete. Because of the rainy morning and wind, the airshow schedule was modified, but we still got to see a lot of airplanes in the air and on static display. I think this was the first year that John really “got it.” He was so excited about all the planes and he almost couldn’t decide what to do first. The highlights this year were the Kansas City Air Dawn Patrol flying the World War I replica planes and the AeroShell Aerobatic Team. It was just a great time and worth our sunburns!
