This is the 500th entry non this blog.



The first photo of the day is of the old Flabob Express, a DC-3 under re-construction off and on for years. It wouldn't get very far without propellers. The second is a Trike with the pilot way out front and the plane is powered with a pusher engine as opposed to the normal tractor (puller) arrangement. You can see that the morning haze affects the picture.
For the second month in a row my bill from Southern California Edison is $7.00. Thanks to the donor of the weatherization process on my house. Life is good to the old folks except that the dollar declined in buying power by 25% in the last eight years. What the hell. Enjoy it while you can.
Friday night is another presentation in the series at Harvey Mudd College where I saw Brian Greene last month. It was worth the drive last time so I'll try it again this week. Then I think the monthly meeting of EAA Chapter One is on Sunday. If don't forget I'll go out to historic Flabob Airport for the meeting.
Spending time at historic Flabob Airport will prove to the unbeliever that we're all on this flight together
