On Friday I got to go with Ethan on his school field trip to the Mountain Home Air Force Base. It was really fun! We started the day seeing 3 different dogs who were trained to find drugs and bombs and to attack bad guys. They showed us some demos of how the dog would attack. Then we went to the fire station. The kids toured the inside (the kids loved the theater room with recliners), got to climb on the fire trucks, pretend to use a fire extinguisher to put out a fire, see 2 fireman race to get their gear on, and get pics with Sparky the fire dog. I think the highlight for everyone was that they got Sparky's autograph on their Sparky coloring book. Next, we went to see the robots and other weapons and artillery. The kids loved the robot taking them on a wagon ride. They also got to drive one of the smaller robots. After that we had lunch at the park and then visited the tanks and then the areas that had fighter jets and training equipment for fighter pilots.
