The Airport

We were fascinated with the county airport and we would walk through the apple orchard to get there. We usually stayed there longer than we intended and figured it was worth any punishment that would come later. The prisoner of war barracks were still there and made nice places to explore.

The owner of Young's Flying Service was very nice to us, he even would let us sit in one of his planes if we promised not to touch anything. I once wanted to be a professional golfer and have my own plane to fly between matches.
