Good Egg in Port Townsend, WA


We went on a little vacation to Port Townsend, WA this last week. I was able to track down an old friend, Bob Stamm, from my Rhinelander Flying Service days. While we were there Bob took us out to the Port Townsend Airport to see the new aviation museum and what is going on there. What's going on is GOOD EGG sort of stuff. Jerry and Peggy Thuotte are giving back to there community in a huge way. They are giving training on plane restoration to young people. These volunteers are learning more then just plane restoration and flying lessons. They are learning valuable life lessons, team work skills, dedication, responsibility and pride in a hard days work. Way to go Jerry and Peggy. Check out their website www.ptaeromuseum.com and learn more about this GOOD EGG.

P.S. The featured chicken is Ruby. She is an '05 Araucana and lays huge blue eggs. Ruby is one of my miracle chickens. She survived a pretty bad dog bite. Her wounds got infected during her recovery and Eric helped me clean her up and make a chicken intensive care. Once isolated she started to recover and returned to the coop a month later. I also call her my opera chicken. She sings beautiful little chicken songs.
