While we were in Altus, we were able to see the KC-135. Clay showed us the simulators where he is currently training. Then we looked at the real deal! We couldn't get up close and personal with the KC-135, but we admired her from a far. And boy is she perdy! Laura is proud to announce that after some good instruction from Clayboy, she can now identify a KC-135! It's hard to tell one big plane from another, but after a little practice and a finer eye - the C-17, c-5, and KC-135 started to look different!
Since we couldn't get up close to the KC-135, (and we had already told CJ we were going to look at Daddy's plane) we looked at a ...Oh boy....here is the true test for Laura. Can she remember what plane we looked at? I want to say it was a C-141? ..uh oh..Is she right? I am either going to have a really proud husband because I got the plane right, or a really embarrassed husband because his wife got the plane wrong and now it is on our public blogspot.... We shall see. but anyway back to the plane, we looked at this big plane and realized just how small we are and how big these planes are! We even found out that they make good umbrellas...yes, a rain shower arrived and we took cover under the wing. CJ then had fun dancing in the puddles.
CJ and Preston decked out and ready to hit the pools!
CJ receiving his knighthood at the local park in Altus!
CJ driving his first rig. Clay says you have to start them out young.... then they can help Papa and Grandma on the farm by age three. Look out!
