New Project

Tuesday
Tuesday was pretty laid back around here, I did do my exercises again Tuesday and then marched down to retrieve the garbage can.  We got the item that is being exchanged sent off by UPS, I puttered in the shop, but never seemed to accomplish anything!  That evening I was watching TV, trying to think of something to write about and finally gave up.

Wednesday
Yesterday, I ran across a kit I have been wanting to build, so today I got it out and started planning.  After a few hours, I decided adding retracts was going to take a lot of modification.  I was feeling more like a project that would be done in a couple of days (that usually turns into a couple of weeks!), so I put the Bronco away and got out this one.
It is a Stinson Voyager with a 51 inch wing span.  It should go together pretty fast once I get done reinforcing a couple of areas.
This is what it should look like when I get done.  Boy did it rain the last two days, Tuesday we had 1.5 inches on the rain gauge when I went to bed.  Today we are at 1.5 inches at 9 PM.  There went the driest December on record.
