check out the Alaskan windsock, up & down all day.
The planes just sat there all day waiting, but it kept blowing until
nearly dark.
After fueling up an Air-Evac helicopter, the guys checked out the
contents of a delivery, made minor repairs to the planes, and tackled
that dreaded paperwork.
Briggs and Bitty, the guard cats, set up a lookout, and the wildlife
got our attention. The killdeer tried to lead me away from their
newly hatched chicks that were hidden somewhere in the grass, but
they wouldn't do their usual broken-wing dance, just flew around and
squawked a lot. That squirrel was eating fresh new oak leaves, and
the wind rocked the spindly branches and nearly dumped him out.
heron flew across. The upper winds were tearing the jet
trails apart, and the temperature dropped, with frost in the forecast
tonight. And we thought spring was here. Ha.
