Sounds pretty good Ober. Not as elaborate as last year like you said, but still not half bad by any means. I'll try to run up from New Braunfels on Sunday. The snow and the 18 degree temps should be gone by then.

All of us on the A-26 crew had a great time last year and I was highly impressed with all the owners that came together on their own nickel to be there. Flying in the slot behind Glacier Girl, P-39, P-40, and the P-51 was nothing short of surreal. Knowing why we were there made it that much better.

We were rained out today. Rod tried to send some thing, but SA was worse than T82. 41 and Barbara got in and left after 41 signed the crew door of Tex Edwards' TBM. Ten warbirds stuck in Fredericksburg till the weather clears. Also saw Snackbar for the first time in years.

P-40, Wildcat, TBM, SNJ (3), O1 (4). Unless you count the suck and blow G5 (550), Excels (2) and Golden Knights Fokker ( might have been a Messerschmidt)

Although we were rained out not a complete flop as we did get to visit with old friends. The heavyweight visitors did show up.........41 and Barbara for two. George signed the door of Texs' TBM and talked about flying it. If we could only get rid of the Secret Service and airport manager we could have probably taken him for a ride. Maybe Barbara would protest but what the heII
