NBA Biplane Expo


George and I took 4-day weekend last weekend and drove to the NBA Biplane Expo in Bartlesville, OK . We had planned to fly in his classic Cessna but with all the bad weather we've been having in the midwest, that was not an option.

There were very few planes at the Expo but we kept busy on the drive to and from by stopping by the Martin and Osa Johnson Safari Museum in Chanute, Kansas, the Little House on the Prairie homestead site near Indepenence, Kansas and Woolaroc Ranch, Museum and Wildlife Preserve outside Bartlesville. This is the country estate of the former Frank Phillips, the founder of Phillips Petroleum Company. I especially enjoyed Laura Ingles homestead and the Safari Museum.
