Not sure I can make it to the 50th celebrations this year but a trip to the new museum is definitely on my to do list for 19 or 20.
Thanks for posting Lonny, anything Jim related always interests me and I'm sure many others.  :good:

I'll be in Scotland during the first week of May, it would be a good attraction to add to a road trip a buddy is planning.  I think his plan was to head north from Edinburgh, but a couple of hour detour along the coast might be a fairly easy sell.
