Memorial Day is usually my first big sunburn of the season. Put on at least an SPF 30. Make sure your kids do, too. Keep those new babies out of the sun!!

It's Air Show season. See if the local military base or Airstrip has a show. It doesn't have to be the Blue Angels. There are lots of great stunt pilots out there and just seeing some of the old planes flying around is a blast.
