No, uh-uh. The FYE store is going out of business so the shelves were pretty bare. I had no idea they were closing. Mostly, because I don't care and haven't been anywhere near the mall since well before Thanksgiving.

We stopped at the hobby shop to check out train accessories because that money is burning a hole in his pocket.

He bought a cool airplane model of the F4U Corsair like on Black Sheep Squadron.

The biggest thing is that we did that without me wanting to hurt anybody. Hey, it's a start!
The F4U was the first single engine aircraft of WWII to exceed 400mph in level flight and were still in use in the Korean war. We have one for an R/C trainer. The C model with the 4 20mm cannons is our boy's favorite in the combat sim. An unarmored Japanese plane does not last long against it, even with one of us adults flying against him. It is like trying to chase a dragonfly on speed.
