Airplane!

Last weekend we got to walk around and sit inside a WWII era plane that visited the Walla Walla airport. Needless to say Caedmon loved it! He was impressed by the 12 onboard .50cal "shooting deers" and its tires which were bigger than he is. Afterwards we walked around some smaller planes (in the background above) which Caedmon wanted to ride in, but he conceded to checking out their exteriors from the ground when he saw that many, which were covered in blankets, had already gone "nigh nigh."
This plane is flown and maintained by volunteers of the Commemorative Air Force out of Mesa, AZ, who actually pay to do their jobs.
