Air and Space Museum

Since the weather in our area tends to fluctuate quickly, today we found ourselves indoors.  Friday it was in the 70's, yesterday in the 50's, today in the 40's and tomorrow night we're expecting snow.  I gave up trying to figure out the weather in Maryland a long time ago.  Eventually it WILL turn to Spring...

Today we visited the Air and Space Museum near Dulles Airport for the first time.  The museum is in a huge Boeing Aviation Hanger with hundreds of planes.      

 We frequently read The ABC's of Airplanes by Jerry Pollotta that features many of the airplanes found in the museum.  Reagan noticed this one right when we walked through the front doors.
 

 Blackbird

 Army helicopters used during the Vietnam War. 

Just like the old helicopters used in M.A.S.H.

 Space Shuttle Enterprise

 Loving every minute of it! 

 Enola Gay, the plane that dropped the nuclear bomb on Hiroshima

 Panoramic view of the cockpit of the Enola Gay

 Wonder how much this clock cost?  

 Isn't this plane just so cute!  I seriously wonder how it flew?

 Camp checking out the view from the deck of the observation tower.
