Trains and Planes: A Boy Day

Last weekend, Josh begged me to go to the airshow downtown.
We packed kid-friendly lunches and hit the Metra.


The beach was packed. We were lucky enough to snag enough sand to setup a single towel.



The planes were either crazy LOUD, whale-ish-ly BIG, or madly coordinated.
Naturally, we called my Dad, knowing he would appreciate that.


I learned a lot. Who knew that those big cargo planes were really that big? The tail on those babies is nearly 5 stories high! Woof!
Josh really enjoyed himself. It was funny to watch him. He was seven years old all over again.
