Hey Jim,

I had so so time on Saturday. With the lack of flying and the weather, it
was medicore. I thought the Thunderbirds did ok, they were kinda sloppy on
few demos though.

I had a cool experince though. I shook a hand of a Tuskegee Airman. I also
thanked him for his service. I couldn't talk to him though, their tent was
full of people that wanted to talk to them.

It was cool though. Did the weather improved any on Sunday Jim?

While I was serving on the Board of Trustees of the Pikes Peak Library
District, I often had occasion to meet Lt. Col (ret) Clarence Shivers,
one of the Tuskegee Airmen. He and his wife, Peggy were great
supporters of the library and quite successful in business as well.
They established a foundation to support the library and the arts in
the Colorado Springs area. Great folks who give back to their
community in a big way.
