Eureka!  All of a sudden it looks like Home is where the Wind Blows to me.  Is that it?

Wow, you are on a roll today PatH. Yes, you got it. Never read his fictional works.

So I was it in both Blanko and Author, Author,  then Frybabe guessed them both, and then I guessed both of hers.  Frybabe, we've got to stop meeting like this. ;)

How was your trip to my neck of the woods?

Very nice, Pat. George enjoyed it too. I was especially pleased to see a P-61, Black Widow there. The SR-71 was bigger than I expected, but the docent explained it when he said that when the Air Force got this particular plane from the CIA they extended it's length to, I believe he said to accommodate a second person. Since it was a guided tour, we skipped some things I would have liked to see and spend some time with.

The docent took a few of us who were interested back to the restoration area. I asked about Silver Hill and found out it still is in service but that the Smithsonian hopes to eventually move all restoration to the new facility, funding permitting. I have a signed copy of a book about the Silver Hill facility but never been there.

The tour ended an hour before we were to leave, but by then George and I were more interesting in finding a place to sit and rest our feet. I was quite happy to be able to move around and see the exhibits without being in a pressing, moving crowd like my last trip (eons ago) to the museum downtown.

I didn't know it: I guessed "  ----- ing through the past", but not the Pawing. For some reason, I haven't kept up with Rita Mae Brown's mysteries. Gotta get on the ball.

An E please
