The engine of an SR-71 at The Smithsonian’s Air and Space Museum.  I kept thinking of how insanely high-tech that plane looked and the fact that it is an obsolete technology now.

Photo Friday: Far From Home.

I will also be far from home today.  My paternal grandfather is back in the hospital, and my maternal grandmother fell yesterday and is staying at my parents’ house, where I am headed today to help out.  I get to teach a ditty tonight on bike types and the basics of bike parts, which is fun and a useful means to not think about things too much.

Bomb bay doors on the Enola Gay. (Please forgive the poor picture quality this week.)

Photo Friday: Emotions. At the risk of sounding corny and/or overly dramatic, here is the plane that changed the world, that the door that did it.
