This is just a quick note to let everyone know that I am a docent at the Smithsonian Institute's Air and Space Museum's Udvar-Hazy center at Dulles Airport. ( nasm.si.edu )

If anyone is coming through the area, please let me know! I would love to take you around.

This is about the only way I can think of thanking everyone for all of the information and offers of assistance I have received.

If you are coming through, or are already here and want to stop in, let me know.

Bob

Bob,
I would love to take you up on that offer someday. Even without a distinguished host, the old Air and Space Museum was amazing, I haven't even seen the new Dulles Airport based one yet. Sometime in the future, I'd like to combine a GMC trip visiting some friends I have in the DC area, going to the Pumpkin Chunkin' contest in Delaware <http://www.punkinchunkin.com/>, and now your kind offer into one trip.

Unfortunately, I know it won't be this year, but it might be in '12 or '13. So, if your offer doesn't have an expiration date, I will bug you at some point.

Bob,

I am up central Virginia this week to clear stuff out of the house to prepare for my move to Florida. Except for that and a couple meetings with my doctor and lawyer I would love to make run up to Dulles. I'll be here until Monday morning when I turn the PT south on I-95 for some sunshine.

Jim,

My scheduled tour day is Thursday morning so I will be there for sure. If you are coming up another day, let me know and I will make arrangements.

At the moment, I expect to be assigned the 10:30am tour. If I don't see you by then, I will try and hold off for the 11:00 am tour.

Come to the tour desk at the rear of the SR-71 and ask for me.

Bob,

It was great meeting you up there at the museum and I wanted to thank you for showing us around. Everytime I go there I see something that I didn't see before. I could spend weeks there and love it. Might be a great place to go for a rally.

Anyway thanks again and hope to see ya'll soon.
