It was a dark and stormy day and night!

Thursday, Boy did it blow today!  We were lucky and never lost power all day, the lights flickered a couple of times, but that was it.  It was a good day to be in the house or the shop.  I got the one Christmas present we had to ship wrapped.  To get a box big enough for the present, I had to unpack one of my kits, so I modified the box to fit the present and ran it down to UPS.   Since I had the plane unpacked, I started doing a little planning on it.  I did go out once and fly the quad to see how it handled the wind.  It had to work pretty hard, but it stayed in one spot without me doing a thing.  I finished the hinging of the ailerons, just the servos and linkage and the wings will be done.  I spent the evening surfing the web and watching Thursday Night Football.

Friday, it was much nicer today, I took a walk around our trails and we did not have any trees come down, just lots of small limbs.  I took this picture as I was heading down to get the mail.  I got the servos mounted in the Edge's wings and one control horn mounted.  I also did a little work on the new project.  I gave Barry a call and had a nice visit with him, it sounds like they may get some rain this weekend.  This evening, I went to Papa Pete's and joined one of the local radio control clubs for their meeting.  I had a really nice visit with my friend Steve while I was there.  Of course, I ordered a family size pizza, so Vera and I will have plenty to snack on this weekend.
