Flying on Delta to St. Louis, Mo. Visiting my step-mom for a few days. She has cancer that spread throughout. I'm hoping it's not the Farewell Tour.
I can feel for you in that area. I went to Victoria Texas in July 1998 to spend a few days with my step mother and I lost her six weeks later. I was devastated for a while as she was everything my birth mother had never been to me. Sorry to say, but I loved my step mother more.
 
I felt the same about my step father. He was an amazing man. My birth father was, to be nice, pond scum.
 
Cutting up the limbs that came down from the T-storm last Thursday. It looked so violent outside that I wondered if we were having a tornado, but the "fire hose" treatment on the windows made it hard to see anything. Most of our T-storms do not have that much in the way of wind but that one was exceptional.
 
I like that. Good choice.
 
Woke up at 0304, got back to sleep until about 0330. Finally got up at about 0445. After breakfast took the dog for a walk, which turned out to be nothing more than a 30 ft diameter circle in the front yard and then back in the gate, for some reason. Headed for the airport and found I had 50 minutes to wait until the Sun came up and I could fly. Finally I cranked up just before sunrise and flew for 37 min, very nice and no air traffic at all. Then I drove over to Cocoa and bought some no-alcohol gas, 10 gal for airplane use. Then back at the airport worked cutting some aluminum for a home project and on the way home dropped by Publix to pick up a few groceries. Home by 1000 AM, did laundry and I feel like I have had a full day already. Afternoon will feature a nap, to be sure.
 
As many may recall, last year I built a toolshed onto my shop.

The overall plan was to build the toolshed on one side of the South wall and a compressor shed on the other.

As it happens, the compressor shed project was delayed due to extenuating circumstances and now that the summer temps are no longer ranging between 108° and 120°, work has commenced.

I started yesterday and this is the progress so far, as of this evening:

 
Wish I was handy enough to do stuff like that, I'm jealous.
