  • BangShifty Family Fun in CT next weekend!

    I wanted to give all the New England BangShifters a heads up about a cool deal me and the family are headed to next Sunday.

    The New England Air Museum is having an "open cockpit" day on Sunday 1/16. The museum is in Windsor Locks, CT and has over 100 planes and something like 200 plane engines on display. The "open cockpit" days are special because they only happen a couple times a year. As you'd expect, kids and "older kids" are allowed to sit in some of the historic planes on display. It should be bad ass. Both boys (and ME!) are really excited to go. They also have a couple flight simulators that they allow kids and "dorks like us" "older kids" to operate!

    We're making a weekend trip of it and heading to New Haven (I know New Haven is nowhere near Windsor Locks, but this effing pizza is the best in the country) on Saturday for pizza at Frank Pepe's and then to the museum on Sunday.

    It'll be a boss way to spend a cold New England weekend. If anyone is in the area and wants to dork out on planes with the Lohnes clan, stop by! I'll be the chubby fellah in the BangShift shirt (that'll have Frank Pepe's pizza stains on it)!

                  ...yeah.

                  Neat deal with the aircraft, sounds fun. My only trouble with that sort of thing is, I get there and start thinking I wanna start a new hobby. :D

                    Pete, you should come down with your daughters if you have nothing going on. You can get there in about 2 hours from where you are at I think. It seems like it'll a fun time. I may elbow a couple kids out of the way to use the simulator. :D

                        Killer!

                        It opens at 10 so I think we'll be there around 10:30 or so. I'll zip you my number via pm. Shoot me a text or a call when you are getting close. It looks like big fun.
