Old school

We had another nice walk this morning, then made a stop at the grocery store for a few things.  We went over to the 4 Corners Farm store for some local honey, then back to the grocery store for the oats we forgot.  Vera fixed ham sandwiches for lunch while I cut up the water melon into bite sized pieces.  It sure was a tasty lunch, in fact we had the same thing for dinner and it tasted just as good!  I was looking for something different to do today, so I got out one of my old helicopters, put a new receiver into it and started trimming it out.  Since it doesn't have the modern gyros in it, it is a little harder to fly.  After a couple of sessions, I had it trimmed out pretty well and did a little forward flight.  This evening, I installed the landing gear onto the strengthened area of the new plane.  I spent the rest of the evening reading and watching TV.
