There's an airshow about an hour from us called EAA in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. We go most years, but it's gotten so big you can't even get through the whole thing in one day, so I'm not sure if we'll go this summer or not.

Oh... that's just the BIGGEST airshow in the world! It's on my bucket list. Looking at 2027.

I'm going to Sun N Fun next month!

I didn't realize. No wonder! It's an hour from here, but by the time you get there and get parked, it's about 3 hours.

I apologize for my naivety. I didn't realize that EAA by us was highly renowned. When we go, it's for my dad, who meets us there from Minnesota. He was in the AF, and in fact, I was born on Langley AF Base, Virginia, in 1960.

Thus, now I'll share some from last year. Dad would know what everything was but I don't. The night show where they made words or pictures they said was the largest drone show at the time anywhere. The fireworks in the air was mostly done by airplanes.
