A great day to work on the Cub!

Boy did it rain and blow last night and at times today!  You would never know I cleaned up the lawn a couple of days ago.  It was a good day for inside projects, so I spent most of the day working on the Super Cub.
I got all the wheels on it and hooked up the push-rods to the elevator and rudder.  Of course as I was putting the wheels on I dropped a set screw, I could hear it bouncing around on the floor.  I got my magnet out and went over the whole area, I found 3 other set screws, but no sign of the one I dropped.  I ended up tapping the hole to a size I had.  I was ready for a break after that, so I went in for lunch, which turned into a nap.  When I finished the nap, it had cleared up a little, so I got the leaf blower out and blew off the decks.  I was going to get the mower out and do the lawn again, but it started raining.  After that, it was back to the Cub, I got the tail light in, ran the wiring for one wing tip light and installed the hinges for one flap.
On my last trip out, I decided to take a picture of the instrument panel, it is looking pretty good!
I spent the rest of the evening watching the Thursday night football game.  Glad I recorded it and could zip through it, as it was low scoring and not very good play by either team.  The final 2 minutes was the best part of the game.
