Hey everybody,

Took the Fam out to Grimes yesterday for the afternoon. What a great day. As was mentioned before there wasn’t much down time from one Mitchell hitt’n the blue to the next. The wind was crazy but looked like maybe it was perfect for take-off and landings. Right down the runway. Anyways thought I’d share a few pics . Really looking forward to tomorrow.

That would be correct, Al... Grumpy landed just before sunset... She looks good next to a bunch of other B-25s!
