Here’s some pics of barn doors I’ve built for customers , that last one I harvested the tree and milled it on my sawmill and built the door, it’s a 3 dimensional design from aromatic cedar.

Dude I just want to say how much I admire you and your grit, for over coming the adversity that has plagued you. You my friend are a true badass .

Once a month a KC-46 (enormous plane) does low altitude laps over my house, he's annoying a fellow pilot in the neighborhood on his Nat Guard duty.
Much quieter than his old KC-135, that was like bombing runs. Scared the crap outta foreigners with the WWII Air Raid/town fire siren going at the same time.
Absolute panic bug eyes, white knuckles. Never lived in the Cold War was my first thought.

"Why are you just STANDING there! Where do we go? Is it the Russians?"
"That's just a air force tanker, not a Russian bomber. Were not being bombed, happens all the time. It's sort of a joke. The air raid siren belongs to the Fire Dept."
"What kind of joke is that? Do they blow it when the town gets unidentified planes overhead?"
"Huh? No...for fires! The low flying plane is the joke. It's just a coincidence."
"OMG!..We though we were going to die, why are you using an AIR RAID SIREN!! "
" It's just been there since , so now its for fires. Wait 'till the steamship horn at noon time, that shakes a square mile or two!"
"Why does your town have a steamship horn AND a air raid siren? "
"Huh? For lunch and fires of course."

Does a round trip by biplane mean you went both ways?

Talk about wanting it both ways.

I lived in Salinas for quite a few years. Lol. Yuck!
I would make a tee-time way in advance of the airshow at the salinas fairways.
We did that for a good 10 straight years, even after i bailed. Have done it at least 12 times. What a fuckin blast!
The round took about 6-7 hrs ;-) i would time our tee off time right so we would be on the back nine when the airshow really was flyin. Good times......
