Saturday

Saturday we took the younger two kids to a remote control airshow. We had heard about it at a hobby store and so George wanted to go. They had RC airplanes, boats and cars. It was fun, as the day went on they announced that they were going to have some bigger planes that are 40% fly(that is 40% of a passenger airplane), so we hung around until the end for those. It was fun watching the little planes swoop and roll and dive and all those things but the big ones stole the show. For some reason we didn't have a camera :( So the shots below are from a cell phone.

In all the day was fun, Tayler liked the flying lawnmower, and the big ones. He thought the boats were cool and they had a ramp they were driving the cars off of.

Emma liked the big airplanes the best and thought when the little ones were doing a fight trying to cut other planes ribbons that was fun too.

I think we will definitely go to this again. The best part for me was it cost $4 per car, that is a bargain, and they had a nice big Oak tree that we sat under the whole day so in all even though it was 104 degrees it wasn't as bad as I was thinking it would be. I like it when things aren't as bad as I thought they would be :)

That looks like it would be so much fun to sit and watch. If I remember correctly, there was an airfield for R/C planes in McMinnville.

104!! Are you kidding? Holy Lava Rocks, Batman! With high humidity too, I bet. Glad you're not a puddle of goo.
