Leif spent the day with my mom
while I took Levi and Luke to the Evergreen Aviation Homeschool Day
Ilex increased the 'adult' child ratio to 1:1. Ahhhhh.
Thank you, thank you, Ilex. You're a gem!!
The Wright brothers and Louis Bleriot, the invention process, and simple machines.
Incredible!!!! We got to fly with the Blue Angels!! Yeah, Baby!!
Da Vinci's flying maching, the Wright Bros., Bleriot, and Howard Hughes and the Spruce Goose.
Various stations were set up for experimenting with gears, pulleys, and more.
We even had a little extra time to see more of the museum. What a gorgeous place!
If you have never seen the Spruce Goose in person, it is hard to fathom it's colossal size.
It has the largest wingspan and height of any aircraft in history. Whew!!
And it is made out of wood.
