Day Trippin'

Just back from a run down to CFB Trenton with Neophyte's G-Dad.

G-Dad's an airplane buff and ex-pilot who trained out west with the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan during WWII. The Museum wasn't open today, but we scoped out the static display and an F-18 through the fence... and watched the Herky-birds touch and go.

It was a nice sunny day and I'm sure he was happy just to have a change of scenery. This being old and less than healthy must be a drag... but he's no whiner.

I'm happy to report he's bounced back some from his diabetes... now if we could only put a few pounds back on his very spare frame.

All in all a pleasant afternoon.
