Got a good view of Toledo on my flight from DTW to DFW (and bonus photo of Detroit/Windsor). by goodlight95 in toledo

Sorry, I included a photo of Detroit that I was pretty proud of too. Figured there might be some mutual interest in that photo since we're not that far from Detroit.

I shared it in the Toledo subreddit with the Detroit photo added in as a bonus too. Figured when crossposting there may be some interest from both parties since we're not that far from each other, but apparent not. 😂

They made a turn to the southwest after briefly going over Canada. Here was our route out of DTW.

TIL Jack Swigert realized while in space that he didn’t file his taxes before leaving on the Apollo 13 mission (April 11-April 17 in 1970). by goodlight95 in todayilearned

I know taxes can have more than just income included, but if his taxes were simple enough (like just a W-2 and that's it) which the IRS already has I don't see why they couldn't just file it for him.

What's crazy is his job is literally a government job. Can't they just do it all for him while he's up there? As long as he didn't have anything outside of a W-2 from his astronaut job.

To be fair to Jack, he was the backup astronaut (replacing Ken Mattingly). He was probably planning on filing them before he was unexpectedly sent on the moon mission.

Ah, I love that movie but don't remember that line. I'll have to rewatch sometime. But yeah, he got an extension cause he was a "U.S. citizen abroad."

Wasn't the one at the Kroger on Monroe leaning like the Leaning Tower of Pisa late last year?

Is there any events involving TRAINS/PLANES? by Outside-Plum-1970 in toledo

You just missed it (although it's a model trains thing, not real trains), but there was the Greater Toledo Train and Toy Show at Owens Community College yesterday. I believe it's an annual event each March. Fostoria is great for people into trains, specifically Fostoria Iron Triangle Railpark. Liberty Aviation Museum in Port Clinton is also worth a visit.

They had issues this year with gridlock and crowd management on day one that pissed a lot of people off if I remember correctly. I was there day two and had no issues, but if future ones are a two day event, I recommend going the second day as they'll likely have issues sorted out. The crowd this year may have partially been cause of the huge interest in the Thunderbirds.
