As I stated in my bio page, I am from Dayton, Ohio. Since Dayton is the birthplace of aviation, no matter what people from North Carolina may claim, and since 2003 is the 100 year anniversary of powered flight, there has been a lot of different events going on in and around Dayton. These events span a two and a half week period (July 3 - July 20) and are part of what has come to be known as Inventing Flight. It has actually been a pretty cool time this summer. I even have a summer job at the U.S. Air Force museum,so even that has been pretty special. I will try to post some pictures from any of the events that I am able to attend.

The three pics on the top row are of President Bush's visit to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base on the 4th of July. One photo is of Air Force One flying into Dayton and the other two are of the president. He is the tiny spec wearing a blue shirt at the podium - you just have to trust me. Below the President are some pictures from the Great Blimp Event (also at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base) on July 12. There are various photos of the Goodyear, Metlife, and Saturn blimps.
