A surprise this morning!

I was doing my e-mails this morning when in walks James and Parker.  They had gone to see Harry Potter last night and James spent the night with Parker afterwards.
Later, I was out in the shop and heard the kids riding a Powerwing in the driveway. I went to see if James wanted his Powerwing and there was Auna and Ava headed for the road with Ava carrying the chalk.  After I got James' Powerwing, I went out to watch and play with the kids.
Every time Harper would make a mark, she would do a celebration.
After the chalk, it was off to the swings.  Ava was wound up rocking her swing back and forth until she had Harper laughing.  Auna has been teaching them to bump fists.  I got a cute video of them swinging, hopefully I will be adding a link to it here soon.  Here is the link!  http://vimeo.com/26753057
I did some testing on the motors of the B-36 today to see what size props I would need.  No one makes a 3 bladed propeller the right size, so I will have to use 2 bladed ones.  I got the rudder installed this evening and the hinges glued in to the horizontal stab.  I had to clean the bench until I found the linkage for the rudder, because not having it was holding me up.  I wonder what else I might find if I did some more cleaning.  A person does not want to rush into that kind of thing, too much like work!
