Palm Springs on a Clear Day! – On the Road with Don and Paula

We lucked out on our last day in Palm Springs.

Weatherwise!

We met up again with Sandi and Steve and went to one of the best aviation museums that I’ve ever been to. The Palm Springs Air Museum is truly word-class!

They were getting ready for their Annual Gala (read fund raiser) so things were a bit jumbled up and not all of their aircraft were available for display as the hanger was needed for this event.

But, the rest was great and as you can tell by the photos, the weather was also!

We saw one of the best explanations of the first six months of our involvement in WWII starting with the attack on Pearl Harbor. This movie production was quite detailed and had a running time of almost an hour. It used both American and Japanese films to convey its message and was very effective.

There are far too many other aspects of this Museum to go into detail about, but their Aviation Art collection, gigantic painted murals, and reference material is quite extensive.

Here for your enjoyment are just some photos from the day.
