This last weekend we had the opportunity to both volunteer for and attend the annual Amigo Airsho here in El Paso. It was a blast. Klaus and I both got to sit inside the cockpit of a T23 (stationary of course) and get a gander at a whole array of aircraft and drool at them from a distance. One of the more notable ones that we got to see up close was a P-38 dubbed "Glacier Girl" which is an aircraft that was salvaged from the resting place of an entire squadron of P-38's that were lost in Greenland called The Lost Squadron. It's an amazing piece of history with a story just as interesting. We also did some costume volunteer work on Friday and brought smiles to around 1000 kids which was just awesome. I trooped as a Stormtrooper and Klaus as Obi Wan. Then on Sunday we took the kids and my cousin to see the Airsho and then returned later that afternoon to help clean up the site as "litter-picker-uppers". All in all it was an awesome weekend can't wait for next year!
