Finally Over Fifty
Not me, the daily high temperature in Homer.
The Sandhills are back and the snow is gone in town. There’ll be more snow but it usually doesn’t stick in May. My indoor tomatoes are racing for the ceiling. Saw the first blossom already.
No outside flowers yet. But soon we’ll have baby moose and fledgling Sandhills. Safe to assume Spring is a little further on in your neck of the woods. Watch out for dem tornados.
Stay safe.
So far I've reached acceptable proficiency at the following, in chronological order: Silversmith, infantryman/door gunner, helicopter pilot, fireman, carpenter, residential contractor, FAA Air Traffic Control Specialist and crotchety old retired guy. Currently, I'm learning to fly again and that is what this is all about. 7/7/2020 edit: As I have had the opportunity to reflect (old people do that a lot) on my actual proficiency level at the above occupations, I feel adjustments are in order. The term "acceptable" depends on the observer, their own proficiency and experience level. Acceptable to me might be woefully deficient to the master. I think it would be more accurate to claim that I have earned a living wage at all of these occupations but never got rich. Actually, I feel that I have gotten rich at the last one. I have what I need and am profoundly grateful for all of it. The future looks bright indeed, as I have learned to fly again. For that I have all of you to thank. Thank You!
First day in 80s today in New Tripoli, PA
Spring has been uneven but the rodent up in Punxsutawney has been generally right about an early spring. At least no late March blizzards
