Air & Space Museum

Jason was working up in DC this weekend (luckily, the night shift) - so we visited the Air & Space Museum on Saturday. Hurricane Hannah turned into a tropical storm and dumped loads of rain and gusty winds on the area as it passed by. Many of the other visitors in the museum were dripping wet after just running from the parking lot to the front door! This was a great facility with more than 80 aircraft displayed. There was even a full-sized space shuttle that had been used for run-throughs and simulations.

Very early helicopters...no way would I be caught dead in these!
