I skipped exercises today and headed out to work on the B-36. I made good headway on the new struts. Then when I got them installed, the plane sat too close to the ground. I tore everything out again and moved the retract units out 3/4 of an inch further and lengthened the struts the same. Now there is plenty of ground clearance and I don't need to change the nose gear length. James called last night and invited us down for birthday pizza at Vernie's. We left early and got gas, then we wandered around Fred Meyer until it was time for pizza. I ended up finding a couple of things, one was a cordless screwdriver with Lithium Ion batteries for the motor home. I threw the one that was in there away yesterday, because every time I went to use it, it was dead. Lithium Ion batteries hold their charge for long periods of time, so I have high hopes for this one.
James' buddy Levi's dad has the same birthday as James, so his family was there also. We had a good time and the pizza was great. We had the Supreme with a stuffed crust, an instant favorite!
