Fall break has arrived and it's time for SoCal with a little side trip for U. Bump and myself (AC/DC in Vegas !).
Time to clear out pictures from the camera so we take a ton at Disneyland this weekend. Here's some that had been hanging around:
Hanging with the Scholly-Bromwells
North Shore shave ice
Ant's eye view
Lily's little friend Candace
Mini-golf
Skating lesson from U. Jacob
Nike Fun Run:
Finish line in sight! Post race snacks
Squirt Gun Fight ! Locked, cocked
Ready to rock
Target acquired
Attack!
Retreat!
Model geekery:
My first Mustang. I never liked the look of the P-51 but I came around while building this one up. I showed it to Kim when it was about 90% done and she said it looked like a shark....which is cool.
A Corsair for a former Bachelor made on spec. Pappy Boyington's from a photo op in 1943.
A Yak-15 for me w/Italian marble base. Marble was detritus from fine Carrara marble that a sculptor who works at the museum had brought back. Interesting plane - At the close of WWII Russian's took jet engines from captured Me-262's and stuck them on the front of some prop-driven Yak fighters to see what would happen. What happens is that your engine's exhaust melts your tail wheel....replace with all metal tail wheel.
