North Carolina - Wright Brothers National Memorial

Since Hubby is a pilot, we naturally visited the Wright Brothers National Memorial, where Wilbur and Orville Wright took the first successful powered, heavier-than-air flights.

Special thanks to Hubby for editing this post!

I noticed that the picture of the Wright Flyer also has a replica of the Wright Glider (on the right side).
