Oh hell yeah!! I’ve got a 1/72 scale B-24 in my stash I plan to get to at some point.


Not sure when it will arrive, but they've been working on an expansion. It's one of my favorite museums of all times. My kids actually love it, to. I'm about 20 minutes away and I can't even remember how many times I've been.

Got any thought as to when you'll be down?

Oh, don’t worry. Baby girl knows all about the ghost tours. We’ve been on I don’t know how many of them over the past 5-6 years. It’s her favorite thing to do in Savannah.


Been to the Pirate's House yet? Oldest building in savannah. Blackbeard used to frequent it in his time.

The girls haven’t mentioned it yet. But I’d not be surprised if it’s soon. The only caveat is baby girl’s work & class schedule is pretty full.

Is that the one that’s a restaurant? If so, we’ve been there and really enjoyed it.

Nicely done. I had a B17G model that I built in 8th AF scheme. Even went to the detail to have a little bit of oil smudge coming out of the bottom of the engines back along cowlings. Really looked good, Unfortunately my grand daughter got ahold of it and broke it. Lesson learned..

When our kids were little, we had family over who didn’t watch their 3-year-old that closely. He got into my model room and destroyed several models, probably like 10-12 I I remember correctly. I didn’t make a scene, but inside I was seething.

Legit good. The fried chicken with the pecan/honey on it is damn good. Kids love going there.

The tunnel is pretty cool and spookyl
