Mayberry. It would be nice for Barneys car to be parked at the entrance to enforce the laws. Also have Otis the drunk welcoming you to the square.

As today is the 75th anniversary of the Doolittle Raid against Japan following the Pearl Harbor attack, I am now thinking I would call it Shangri-La.

How many Doolittle Raiders are left?? Very few, I would think. Do they still get tougher every year?

The sole remaining crew member is 101 year old Richard Cole who was Doolittle’s co-pilot. There may still be a few B-25s other than the one based at Grimes Field when I arrive in Urbana today. A WWII aircraft carrier was named Shangri-La.
