aviation inspiration


so yesterday i was a little bummed over the fact that i had gone to the air show and forgotten my camera, therefore missing all kinds of great photo opps of air-acrobatics. and then comes along my precious friend paulette, maker of lemonade out of lemons, and sweetly suggests that i create a little doodle out of that red bi-plane doing the loop-de-loop-thing-in-the-shape-of-a-heart i was telling you about.....and i thought what a great idea!!! so, here's the way it's been recorded in the memory card of my mind.....and when you've got a red colored pencil, a white gel pen, a chalk pencil, and your favorite pair of magnifiers, who needs a camera? :)
thanks bunches, paulette!!

  1. Oh, Lori, I guarantee that even if you HAD remembered your camera, you would have been disappointed in the pix. I went to an air show this summer, and the planes moved so fast that my camera didn't "see" much at all.

    And it would be impossible to capture the maneuvers they do. Just enjoy the memories. :)

    xoxo,

  2. Lori,

    I've been there before, forgetting the camera. Real bummer! Sorry you had to go through that.

    However, your friend had a wonderful idea! It is fabulously cute! I love it! Besides, Shiborigirl's experience makes everything ok.

    Sorry, Shiborigirl, for your diappointment. No fun :(.
