Over President's Day, our friends Josh and Maria came down from the Bay Area for a nice visit. We showed them around town, including a visit on Saturday to the Pima Air and Space Museum which has four hangars worth aircraft, including the SR-71 which is an awesome plane to see up close. We also got to walk through the Air Force One plane used by Kennedy and Johnson. It's tiny (about the size of a bus) compared to the current Air Force One but must have been luxurious for the time. In addition to the hangars there are numerous amount of planes outside the facility and that doesn't include the Boneyard, a huge airplane graveyard that is run by local Air Force base. The museum runs tours out there but only Monday through Friday so we missed it. Oh well. Maybe next time.
On President's Day, Susie had to work (boo!) but Maria went to get a massage at a local spa while Josh, a home brewer, helped me start my first batch of brew. It's an interesting, time intensive process (the whole brewing process takes about a month) but I'm very excited to taste the final product.
We had such a great time hanging with Josh and Mari. I really miss all our friends in the SF area and I hope I can get back there in the next year to see everybody.
Here are some photos from the museum
