[Spridgets] EAA Air Show

[Peter C]

Larry,
         Thank you and your brother. We had a great time, even though 
we left early-ish. I AM glad they don't actually drop any ordnance... 
we were sitting a tad close if they were. The P40 was the only thing 
whistling in a dive. Very cool.
         After the noise from the Raptor, the Mini's "Concerto in 
A-series Minor, Cacophony" was enjoyable as Jane and I buzzed through 
the cornstalks heading home.
         A good time, nice cars, expensive flying machines.

Think how fast it would've been gone if it had been good beer!  ;-)
