I am back. I left the blog world and moved over to the Caring Bridge world because of recent health issues. And, it has been a whirl-wind summer. I am still having trouble wrapping my head around the fact that my two older children are married - both in unusual circumstances and I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. All of that I will write about in this blog. But, I also want to write about stuff I have seen in the air this summer. I am always looking up. It is amazing what you can see if you do.
The above plane is an Air Tractor AT502. Better known to us as a "crop duster". It is registered in Colorado, actually. But it was spraying a field near my house this summer. It is a beautiful plane - especially the bright yellow against a clear blue sky.
Watching a crop duster is like watching a private air show. The pilot dips and turns and twists with amazing dexterity. And, it is pretty exciting to see a plane that low that close.
Looking up helps me keep perspective. It can also be pretty entertaining.

Why are you so fascinated by things in the air? How did that start? I like flying things, but they all wear feathers. - Larry
