On Saturday, January 31st I did the senior citizen shuttle, when I took my mother and my in-laws to Spirit Mountain so they could satisfy their gambling itch. Me...I don't have that itch, but I saw it as an opportunity for them to support the local tribe in their efforts at getting back at the white man. Since I don't gamble, I dropped them off and I went to satisfy my own itch, or a pair of them...photography and airplanes. These are taken at the Evergreen Aviation Museum near McMinnville, Oregon, with a 10-24mm wide angle lens.
