I haven't contributed to the blog as of recent, mostly because of the kiddo, and then going back to work.

My bestie pulled the tanks the last two days, sent me this a few moments ago. This restoration endeavor will teach me nothing, if not patience...

Well do tell? is it insulation so he does not dent a metal tank when he kneels on it? bladders?

A fair trade!

I keep telling folks she’ll be ready to fly on Thursday!

I forget to tell them which month and year though.

It is very sad when the grubby business of earning a living gets in the way of important things….

This is none of my business, but also incredibly important.

If you hate your job, get another one. Life is too short to live in a prison cell of your own creation.

I know I'm weird, but I love my job. Other people probably wouldn't like what I do,
and believe it or not, that's ok. People are different. Figure out what makes you
happy, and do it. I get really distressed when I see people making themselves
unhappy, year after year. You only get one kick at the can.

You probably wouldn't approve of my kids, but one of them sent me this Christmas

Q: When will it be done?
A: Tuesday

My joke is Thursday, but same sentiment.

In spite of Scud trying to distract me with meme's, some major progress was accomplished this weekend:

I was watching Trent Palmers latest video about his hangar build, and he mentioned GoPro has a feature to do Timelapse. I'll try to figure that out and see if I can set it to Benny Hill music and have a loop playing.
