It was good to be in NY. Except for the cold. It is easy to forget how cold it is there. I managed to get sick. I am not sure if it was food poisoning or some other bug, but I was down and out for a few days. I will be in Kansas for a day or so.

I went up to Helen Georgia about an hour away from Duluth. I visited a working water driven grist mill. They had a single turbine operational. I had to leave shortly after I arrived; I became very jealous of the owners. Then I hiked about 5 miles. At about 2.5 miles there was a very nice secluded waterfall at Raven Cliffs. I am planning my next trip up there in a few weeks.
Wow. That week was fast! I hired a personal trainer. I am having a metabolic study done Saturday so I can find my fat burning band. It is all pretty interesting. The workout I get with the personal trainer is pretty much amazing. It really makes that much of a difference. I learn a lot and my muscles are getting taught new things. I ordered a new keyboard for my other laptop off ebay. The N and B keys aren't working. That is the computer with all the pics on it so I will have to mess around to get a pic posted here. I haven't been taking many pics in the last few days. I guess it all seems pretty routine around here now. The traffic can get really bad. You have to plan. I spent 1/2 an hour the other day going about 6 miles and that was normal for that stretch that time of day. Crazy. I am starting to get used to the really nice weather. The fall is really nice here. 50 degrees leaving for work and 70s during the day with clear sunny skys. Atlanta suits me well for a big cit
Another week has gone by. I cancelled my November trip to Europe. The only real travel I have planned for this month is NY and Wichita Kansas. In December I will be getting down to Argentina and Brazil. I have about 4 cities to get to in South America. I joined a really fancy fitness club. It is probably more of a resort than a fitness club. Let's see how that goes. The answer on how I got though the broken key incident is: I went into a store and bought some super glue and I glued the key together. The glue worked perfectly on retrieving the broken bit of key. The torque on the key was handled by the shank. This morning I went out to LZU for a EAA pancake breakfast and hanger fly. I wasn't disappointed. I also looked at the plane that I might buy fractional ownership.
