First Solo Trip!

Surprise visitor tonight, James got his license today and made his first solo drive up to see Vera and I!  We had a nice visit with him before he headed back home, he was one happy kid.

We have been collecting BK fry sauce for Dianne, the kids really like it.  This afternoon I took some over and when I came in the door, Harper had just finished decorating a cupcake for me.  She gave it to me and insisted I eat it right then, that was easy to do, it tasted great.  When I left, they sent one home for Vera.  While I was gone, Vera had made peanut butter cookies, I sampled one and then set the cupcake down in it's place and took a picture.  Need I say that I am pretty full as I write this!  James also went home with some cookies.

It was a slushy walk this morning, we ended up walking over half of it on the road because the trail and sidewalks were slippery.  I got some receivers I had ordered when we checked the mail, so I worked on the Dirty Birdy most of the day installing one of them, the motor and one landing gear.  The landing gear fit at one time, but when I glassed the wing, I must have gotten some epoxy in the groves.  I got one cleaned out before I called it a night.  Wheels, prop, canopy, neaten up the wiring and it will be ready the next time we have some good weather.
