I arrived in Alexandria, Louisiana this afternoon as my starting place for a road trip through Mississippi and Tennessee. The Alexandria International Airport is the old England Air Force Base airport that was converted after the military base closed in the 1990s. I decided to find a geocache or two before heading over to the hotel and the caches took me to the England AFB Heritage Park, a display of old airplanes. The display is across the street from the Oakwing Golf Club, which holds a small veteran’s cemetery and that is where the geocache actually was. The display is quite impressive and I spent some time looking at all the old planes. I did find my geocache, so off to the hotel, it’s been a long day flying out there.
