Summer brings new friends

Summer is here. I have the AC on occasionally, except for the zoom room, which the AC is on all the time I am in there. Since we had so much rain awhile back, the mosquitos are unbearable. I called for air support from a pest killer company. June brings new fawns in this area. We have two new ones in the back yard, learning about the world. There was a nice Pitts Special that showed up at the EAA 690 breakfast this past week. I picked up another traffic control device. I will add an appropriate relay and sell to someone with a man-cave or bar. Wisdomino is certainly keeping me busy. I am a professional networker now. A lot to juggle.

Sunday was a full day. I started off deer hunting and sending Greg and Sandy on their way (unfortunately we didn't get any deer). It was around zero degrees out there in the woods. It is very easy to get cold when you are sitting very still. Then it was off to my combination flying lesson. My mentor received instrument instruction doing VOR approaches (under the hood) to Oneonta and Sidney NY. I was in the back seat. In Sidney we gassed up the plane and I flew it back to Greene with my mentor in the back seat. It was a lot of fun and fellowship. Then I worked out and went shopping. The video is our soft field takeoff out of Greene. There was about 4 inches of snow on the runway.

It has been hovering around zero degrees out there both mornings. Staying warm while sitting perfectly still can be a challenge, but if you dress for it it can be done. I am very disappointed by the other deer hunter tracks we have found. There is absolutely no regard for the property being posted. Absolutely none. I am taking action, cool and collected. I will be making an example of these guys when I catch them. I will proscecute to the maximum level. Word will start getting around then. Just like most form projects, it is a multiyear effort. I sold my nice log. I only got 85 bucks for it. It was worth 60 as firewood. That was a disappointment too. I am thinking I am going to but the sawmill soon. I need beams for the addition. It is the think to do. I am looking for tire changers on ebay too. I am so ti...
