B-29

While I was measuring for making a small retaining wall to replace some rotten railroad ties this morning, I heard a loud plane with round engines coming.  It turned out to be the Boeing B-29 SuperFortress  "Fi Fi" on its way to the Olympia Airshow.  I was wishing for a camera, but no luck this time.  After the measuring, we headed down to Home Depot and picked up the blocks.  After we unloaded them, it was back to Swanson's for a load of 5/8 minus gravel to put under them.  James had a game scheduled for today, but it got rained out.  I puttered most of the rest of the day away on the computer.
By the time we went to bed, it had rained almost a half inch, I am glad I did not have to be outside during that!
