Saturday, 6/24
Willow Run We were supposed to join Jim & Tami Burns (and kids) at Henry Ford's Greenfield Village on Friday, but the flooding rains in Ohio delayed our arrival by a full day. This meant that we were only able to join our friends for dinner Friday night and breakfast Saturday, as they had to depart for Grand Rapids. We *could* have stayed another day and seen the sights, and flown home on Sunday -- but a combination of "motel fatigue" and the threat of bad weather on Sunday convinced us to head home. The Henry Ford Museum will have to await a future flight... On the flight home, we were stunned at the incredible visibility around the bottom of the lake. This allowed us to actually see the Chicago skyline from Gary, Indiana. Chicago Center was routing airliners into Midway directly UNDER us, as we tootled along westward -- presenting us with some interesting views of the TOP of airliners!
