Today’s Harvest

It was forecast to rain today.  So, I harvested these from our hydroponic garden.  I should have placed a ruler in the photograph.  The central tomato is about 3-1/2 inches in diameter.  Add lettuce, raisins, craisins, dried cherries, shredded cheese and salad dressing.  Yum….  Eat Healthy.  Next week I’ll put on a mask and gloves to go grocery shopping for several head of lettuce.

Last week Dolly and I volunteered as ground crew for the EAA’s 1929 Ford Trimotor that was visiting Brooksville Florida.  On Sunday the ten passenger plane had eleven flights.  On the last flight there were only nine paid passengers.  From the volunteers, Dolly was selected to fill the last seat.  It was a beautiful yet blustery day.  Winds were 10 gusting to 24.

I worked as flagman, signaling to the starter that my side of the ramp was clear of people.

This trimotor has a 235 gallon tank.  The pilot climbs up through a cabin roof hatch, drops a rope and pulls up the fuel hose.
