I love free stuff, especially when it's just what I need.
My son works for a concrete company, I need rip rap for the pond bank. Their wash out and other scrap concrete they usually haul to a 'stone' maker where they crush and reuse to make artificial rocks. But they really don't care where the stuff goes as it's otherwise landfill for it. So he's bringing home truckloads of scrap concrete in somewhat manageable sized pieces. Got about 6 tons so far and another 6 coming over the weekend.
Now onto the You Know What I Hate thread for the rock pile work.....

I probably could. The live Fight Radar showed the plane registration, it's how I knew it was a F51 and not a P51.
UndergroundFarmer That is a stock photo not the actual plane.

This one is sporting invasion stripes from Operation Overlord.

Apparently the last piston engine plane used before the jets came on the scene in the Korean War.
Here’s What You Need To Remember: The F-51D Mustang, which by 1950 was predominantly assigned to Air National Guard and Reserve squadrons based in the continental United States, turned out to be the ideal aircraft for relieving the pressure on the United Nations forces. Even More from the National Interest: Can China Really Rise […]
The public mostly remembers the North American P-51 Mustang as the fighter plane that protected Allied bombers over Germany and Japan during World War II. Overshadowed by newer jet fighters by the time war broke out in Korea in 1950, the re-designated F-51’s relative technological backwardness became a qualified blessing for close air support and battlefield interdiction sorties against the Korean People’s Army.
Warren Thompson’s new book F-51 Mustang Units of the Korean Warfocuses on the veteran fighter’s role in Korea, and also exposes the plane’s little-known history with Australia, South Africa and the Republic of Korea.

Growing it's my full time job now. So I've been very busy too. Until this last month. The heat from summer makes it very difficult to grow so I slow down production for a couple of months.
