A restored DH-9 found in an elephant stable!

Most likely stored in the elephant stable. I was at Duxford last weekend and have a few photo's may have a photo of the DH-9... will post them in the morning if I have.

True about humans storing things in unlikely places. That's what makes living in an old house interesting, you never know what might pop up.

I live in an old house too, eldragon! It's from about 1900. You are right, you never quite know what you are going to turn up. We have an old outhouse door incorporated into our basement!

Our house is 115-years-old. Unfortunately, we haven't found much here. We bought the place as a bank repo - and they had gone in and cleaned out everything, including the attic, which is kind of a bummer.

I grew up in an old funeral home in Kansas, and never tired of poking through the treasures in the attic and basement. It make for an interesting, adventurous childhood.
