Default Wings of Freedom Tour 2019

Yesterday I had the pleasure of seeing the Wings of Freedom Tour here in Laconia. It was a chance for all to see up close, touch and fly in 4 WWII military planes. I just admired them, took some pictures and got to put my hands on them, which gave me the chills. Many brave souls gave their lives fighting for our freedom and the liberation of millions in Europe in planes just like these. It was a fantastic experience. It will be here today and Wednesday as well.

Here are a few images I took:



















This is my favorite. I love the way the boy's grandfather has his hand on the boy and I like to think that he is feeling grateful that his grandson didn't have to fight and hopeful that he never will.
