James, Heli and old Photos

James stopped by after school was out today.  He is observing at the Castle Rock middle school this quarter.  It sounds like he is really enjoying it.  I got my 2023 Blog to print book today and James got to be the first person to look through it.  We had a nice visit talking about some of our past flying friends.

I haven't  posted much about it but I have been working on the TREX 500X all week.  Some of the parts look assembled when unpacked but they are just put together loosely so you can see where all the screws go.  The time consuming part is taking it all apart and then reassembling it while using Blue Loctite so they will not fall apart from the vibration when flying.

Vera has been making bread lately, this is some oat bread she made.  It was a great and made a nice lunch when buttered, topped with cheese and toasted in the oven.  This week she made wheat bread, it was both breakfast and lunch for me yesterday.

Here is a scan of an old family picture.  Left to right, Barry, Dad, Mom, Laury, Me, Pam with Cathy and Dianne in the front.  There are sure lots of good memories in these old pictures.
