This is number 1261, I've been doing this longer than I intended, but we'll just go on. I noticed that fewer people read the blog when I write about airplanes. I take it that there is little interest in planes, with the exception of Wilbur and I, who earned a livelihood while working with the things; planes were good to us. Planes are also hard to forget, every time we want to hear what you say it's a struggle. My hearing continues to get worse I was told during an appointment at the VA Clinic in September, and my hearing aids were adjusted accordingly. Yesterday I noticed that the hearing has seemed to take a rapid drop in my left ear - it may not be the case and I'm the last one to be sure.
Anyway maybe the plane stuff will go the way of my hearing - they're both closely related, believe me. There are many, many subjects to write about I just can't always think of one.
