Two cousins and their wives epic weekend.
What a great Football weekend on December 5th and 6th. It was a great trip, and a great weekend spent with my cousin and his wife. And at one point when the cheerleaders came out I turned to my wife and said and I quote: "3rd one from the left" And she said and I quote: "Is that the one you like the best, yea she is hot" Do I have the best wife ever!!!!!
First it was off to Boeing Field for a private tour that we had scheduled with a tour guide that actually flew the B-17 in 1943.
This picture was from 1943 when Hank flew the B-17 in that picture. He was there to give us a guided tour of the plane and his stories were amazing. He's 89 and still sharp as all get out. It was a pleasure to meet him and the fact that he's still around. The picture of that plane has a story that when he was flying that plane, they were hit with some flak and the Radio operator was blown out of the plane, but he had a parachute on and lived. He was a POW for a year and lived to tell his story.
That's Hank on the left. What a cool guy.
We also thought it would be cool to get our wives to pose with him, and as you can see he got a kick out of it. LOL
Two cousins pretending...good times
Then of course we had to get the wives up there too.
Then it was off yo the museum of flight, check out the Blackbird!
Then the next day it was game time!
The wife.
My cousin and his wife
And yours truly

If you get close to Tillmook check out the blimp hanger. Lots of aircraft in it to. Has pictures of aircraft flying through the hanger. Cool stuff.
