Who wouldn't want to watch these three studly hunks on the big screen
As I wrote about previously in "Paging Hollywood" (http://aufderheideflying.blogspot.com/2011/05/paging-hollywood.html) I really think that our daily little crop dusting life here at DeWitt Municipal Airport would make for some great reality tv... But I also mentioned that we would probably pass... Well, it looks like somebody stole my idea... And even worse! They're from Canada!
Last week the e-Edition of AgAir Update provided us with all the details: "A new reality TV series on ag aviation called "Dust Up" will premier on History Television in Canada June 2nd. Episodes will run for 3 weeks with two 1/2 hour episodes each week. The series will not be carried in the U.S. but will available at http://www.history.ca/ after June 2nd." You can also watch the trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34ZJ5AKHWe8
Why in the world does anyone want to watch crop dusters from Canada?!?! Well I'm not exactly sure but here are the following reasons that we shan't be watching 1) Canadian crop dusters talk with funny Yankee accents (they say "out" and "bout" strangely) and pretty much anything that comes out of their mouth sounds like Sarah Palin. 2) In the preview they keep talking about how scary, frightening, and dangerous crop dusting is... All the real crop dusters I know don't really even mention it. They don't like to brag. (About their jobs anyways, their money & hot bodies may be a different story! ha) They certainly know the risk but don't like gloating about it. 3) They don't have single yellow airplane. (weirdos) 4) Apparently they do have a one chick on the show, but she is not cute and doesn't seem to know what she is talking about. 5) They don't have anyone close to the ruggedly handsome men I get to work with each and everyday! Those Canadians seem to have a bunch of facial hair and wear a lot of black; I'm not a fan of facial hair... Like I told the guys at the mixing tank this morning, "If I can take the time everyday to shave my legs, you can certainly take a little time and shave your face." 6) Lastly, they certainly don't seem to have the camaraderie we have here at the DeWitt Municipal Airport. Sure we work long, hard hours and sometimes we get busy and frustrated and yell when we get flustered, but at the end of the day (and like most of my stories illustrate) we're all good friends, we care about one another, and congratulate each other on a job well done!... Like Cupcake said last week, "Canada Ain't Got Nothing On Us!"

The pictures above were taken late last Saturday afternoon after a brutal and backbreaking week. Lonnie had worked hard for us all day to help us finish up and I rewarded all three guys with a cooler full of cold ones! The top pic was a candid shot I got of Lonnie explaining to the young boys how to get rock hard abs just like his. And the bottom one of us was our celebratory pic for closing out the week! Aren't I a lucky gal!
