Last week went to the St. Louis County air show and fair. Bert and I went, Mike was working there directing traffic so he got some free tickets. The air show was great, got a few pictures of the planes, F18, F15, and a Harrier. They had helicopter rides there on a Vietnam era "Huey" They ended the show with a flyby of a WW2 P51 fighter flying alonside a F15 fighter jet.
Still hot here in Florissant, MO. , mid 90s but it's supposed to cool off this week. Started back to school, helping out two kids from the first grade and the kindergarten. My kindergarten teacher got transferred to a different school out by Spanish Lake. She was very upset about having to leave, and had some tears. I promised to visit her. It was a shame, because she had been only working 1/2 day at Lawson and then 1/2 day at the other school. She did this to help out the other kindergarten teacher last year, since it was her first year teaching kindergarten. It turned out that by volunteering to help out at the other school, she lost her seniority so that was why she is leaving. I guess it's true "No good deed goes unpunished!"
