Oh my gosh! What a great afternoon we Whidbey Island Sketchers had at the
PBY Memorial Foundation Historical Museum on the Seaplane Base in Oak Harbor. This is an amazing museum and I think few on the island know about it. Trust me - it's worth a trip... NOW! Thanks to the great team of curators who filled us with knowledge about the PBY as well as the info in exhibits. Really - you must go see this place!!
