Thanks!

My brother Marc and I are both at the top of our Dad's list. Too bad Marc
wasn't able to go along also. He was traveling to Wyoming at the time. I
borrowed his video camera so that he (and others) could see our thrill and
excitement. Too bad I only got about 10 minutes of our flight on tape before
the batteries quit. We did take several still pictures using a regular
camera. I'm waiting for Mom to get those developed.

My dad made the statement afterwards: "Maybe we should fly in the B-24 too,
I have never flown in one of those." Next year's birthday present?

There is a 100th Bomb Group (http://www.100thbg.org) reunion this year in
Houston October 9-12. My parents are planning on going. If I can get off
work, I'd like to go too. I went with them to one of the BG reunions a few
years ago in Cincinnati and a trip to Wright/Patterson AFB. It was well
worth it to hear all the stories.
