Springtime at Bobbi's Bungalow

Lilacs at Bobbi's Bungalow
Happy May!  Spring is my favorite time of year; I just love the life that it brings back to God's beautiful earth. It was perfect spring weather for the lilac bush by the house, and I just love the fragrance!  After redoing the flower beds last summer, it is great to see the flowers popping back up and tulips and grape hyacinths blooming.
I have decided that April was Aviation month at the bungalow. I was privileged to host the guest speaker for the Champaign Aviation Museum's Gala this year, Dr. Rhea Seddon and her husband Robert "Hoot" Gibson. They are both astronauts and have flow in multiple space shuttle missions!

As Dr. Seddon was getting ready for her speaking engagement, my son and I visited with Hoot and got to hear some of his space stories. It was a joy to talk with him and compare our similar family stories. Ok, I've never flown in space, but have taken flying lessons and have family members who are pilots. Both of our fathers are pilots, and our sons have ATC (air traffic control) background, so we had some fun things to talk about.
 
The following weekend I hosted a Southwest Airline pilot and his family. He has military background that includes being an Air Force One Advance Agent, taking care of the logistics of piloting very important people. I will admit that he is family😊, and although under sad circumstances of the loss of a loved one, it was a pleasure to have them stay at the bungalow.
 
Somehow I missed hosting a pilot during the B-25 Gathering at Grimes Airport the third weekend of April. I'll have to work on that for their next event!

"Champaign Gal"
If you are a pilot, or if you know of one looking for an aviation filled vacation, I suggested a trip  to Urbana, Ohio and Grimes Airport. Plan for breakfast or lunch at the Airport Cafe. They are known for their home cooked meals and delicious homemade pies.

You can check out the the B-25 "Champaign Gal" and the restoration of our B-17 "Champaign Lady,"  at the Champaign Aviation Museum and also visit the Grimes Flying Lab. Both the National Museum of the USAF and the Armstrong Air and Space Museum are less than an hour away. And I have a cute little place to stay the night. There is so much to do here. It is worth the visit!
