A friend of my Dad had one and it was such an docile and fun plane to fly. I was an “airport bum” back in the 70’s as my Dad had a Luscombe, Cessna150 and a 1946 Fairchild 24W. I soloed in a Champ when I was 16 and that’s where my love of General Aviation came from but I decided to go the ATC...
My medical bills from skydiving and BASE jumping were and still are expensive. Just finished having the discs between C5-6, C6-7 replaced with cadaver bone, bone spurs removed from C5-6-7 that had grown into my spinal cord and nerve running down my left arm and a plate installed to fuse C5-7...
I have plant stands with grow lights in my basement and will start my tomato, squash, zucchini, cucumber seedlings at the end of Feb as the last frost up here in the mountains is usually mid-April. Also grow turnips, collards, sweet potatoes, carrots, strawberries, green beans, spinach, lettuce...
Outstanding collection. I learned to drive a tractor on my Grandad’s JD B model. Learned real quick to use brakes for turning or that tricycle gear front end would just plow ahead in soft dirt and a hand clutch lever taught you to plan ahead.

I do and have found a few pre-65 quarters, dimes but I doubt many folks use cash bills anymore and receive change. I guessing many under 25 may not know what coin denominations are.
Looks good. I went from 35’s to 33’s as I spend 99% of my driving on mountain roads and the Broncos are top heavy with a good tendency to roll. 35’s were just a bit too tall with a lift.
It’s amazing how many chemicals are out there and the long term effects they are creating yet it’s pretty much kept quiet unless it directly impacts you or someone you know.
Well I removed all of the soil from the two raised beds, replaced it with new Jungle Growth and luckily Lowe’s had some nice Roma and Better Boy tomato plants. I normally raise my plants from seeds using grow lights but it’s too late to start a new batch so hopefully these Bonnie plants will do...
