Use nine: Try softening brushes that are hardened with old, dried-in paint by boiling them in vinegar and let them stand for one hour. Then heat the vinegar and brushes come to a gentle boil. Simmer for 20 minutes. Rinse well, working the softened paint out of the bristles. For extremely heavy paint encrustations, you may need to repeat the process...or head to the hardware store.

Use ten: A little vinegar and salt added to the water you wash leafy green vegetables will float out bugs and kill germs.

Use eleven: Soak or simmer stuck-on food in 2 cups of water and 1/2 cup of vinegar. The food will soften and lift off in a few minutes.

Use twelve: Clean and freshen the garbage disposal by running a tray of ice cubes, with 1/2 cup of vinegar poured over them, through it once a week.

Use thirteen: In a pinch, you can use equal parts of lemon juice and vinegar to clean brass and copper. On difficult areas add a little salt to the mix for some abrasive action.

143: Up, up and Almost Away

                                  
                            








Maggie took her maiden flight a couple of days before the plane left for the air museum in Santa Maria.  Unfortunately, Bob was in the hospital when the guys came and transported it.  But he felt good enough on that Friday to attend the welcome dinner for the pilots and members.



                                                                         Preston was the first person to have his picture
taken in the plane in the museum.  We were all
guests of the museum for the air show that day.

                                   Robby was able to get his picture taken last week
                                      when he and Trisha were here from Switzerland.






This young lady was a Coast Guard Air Crewman  and the first person to have her picture taken by request in the museum.  As you can see our little plane is in good company and we couldn't be happier.  It will be well cared for and enjoyed for a very long time.  Maybe sometime you can come to Santa Maria and have your picture taken.
