Because to me the surest sign of Spring used to be getting all the Gardening Catalogs in the mail, and planning out what seeds to order and where it should be planted, etc. Now we can go online anytime and do that, but I really miss those catalogs.

Goodyear 1946 ad....there's a BLIMP!!!!!!!!!!!! in the ad and Goodyear Blimps are a world wonder to me--and many others! Scary thought, but there are other blimpologists who think the Goodyear blimp is magical. Blimpologists only consider Goodyear blimps BLIMPS, any other is an 'imposter'. No, I have no idea why. I'm not from Akron, and I'm about the last person who'd have 'home town pride'---though I have land of misfit toys pride (my neighborhood!). There's just something about the Goodyear blimp.

Last Saturday the newest one took it's first flight. I went to the Goodyear World HQs but it didn't fly over there, it stayed in the area of Wingfoot Park in Suffield but I SAW IT!!! And it's just a fantastic feeling knowing there's THE blimp back in the sky! We don't get our own Akron blimp until NEXT year. We've had a few years of blimp drought!

New blimp!
