July 1993

We drove to Dayton, OH to tour the Air Force Museum on Wright-Patterson Airbase. It is the oldest and by far the largest military air museum. It has a very impressive collection of planes that cover the history of aviation and war. My only disappointment was not seeing a F6F Hellcat, a plane I 'fly' on a computer flight simulator. I was told we would have to go to Pensacola to see Navy planes.

On the way back we stopped in Indiana to visit Amish Acres. We looked around the pioneer farm for a little while. It all seemed a little strange until we realized the attraction had no connection with the real Amish. It is a fake tourist-friendly Disney-esque version of an Amish village. Aimee and I both felt cheated.
