Well guys and gals. As some of you know this coming Sat is the big day for me. I just wanted to give a little post and update on the info. For those the do not know what is going on I'll tell you. I am getting married this Sat at the Lone Star Flight Museum. We are having a WWII themed wedding with all the fixin's. I have an original 8th airforce uniform with complete felt patch and all. We are having all 40's music from Glen Miller, Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, etc. Today I found out that the B-17 is in fact going to be our center piece that we will be married under the nose of surrounded by fighters. Tar Heel Hal P-47, Putt Putt Maru P-38, plus the B-25, spitfire, and more surrounding us. It's going to be a great day! Before I wasn't so worried about anything but now that the day is finally getting here the ol gitters are kreepin in... hehe I have even gone to the trouble of having my great uncles shoes re-done that he wore in WWII. They looked like he walked about 1000 miles in them but they look like they just came out of the box now. He was a B-17 tail-gunner in the war and then went on to be an instructor. Sadly he was killed in an accident when the B-17 he was on hit a mountain. I'll be sure to post pics of the wedding and all that good stuff... Talk to you all soon...
Take care,
Point
Weekend wedding
Hope everything turns out on Saturday as expected. Looking forward to the pics!!!
