Most children have returned to school and now that back-to-school is behind us its time to work on a list of Field Trips for my family to go on during the school year. I would like to share National Aviation Day & Bussey Hot Air Balloon Event – Saturday, August 19, 2023 – 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. CT this event is in Houston.
We would need to take a day or two off. Which we can’t do at the moment, but you might want to take your family. Or even just go on a date with your significant other. I am telling you one day God willing I will be able to visit the Lone Star Flight Museum with my family. We would like to invite you to come with us.
Lone Star Flight Museum at Ellington Airport, Houston, Texas
Calling all aviators! It’s a day made for the Lone Star Flight Museum. Enjoy a day that is all about aircraft. From helicopters and drones to warbirds and space shuttles, it’s a special day to celebrate aviation!
