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.

Amateur Rocketry

I have always been interested in rocketry. Here is a really good milestone-type launch of amateur rocketry. I knew there was a reason I was being drawn towards Burning Man and the Black Rock desert this year. Hopefully, I will make it in 2012. The rockets are the real burning man.

I don't think I ever put Melody Gardot on my blog. (A quick look back indicates I did early this year.) Her story is very interesting. These three in order, even if you only listen to some of each piece. You will be back.

I have been busy at work. I am planning a trip to Brazil in a couple of weeks. Other than that NY, MA and maybe some other domestic travel for the rest of the Year. I may go to Haiti in March. I have to get the dates. I will be in Europe in Feb. It has been windy flying. Too windy to solo, but I still go with an instructor. I have a lot of studying to do. Here is an article about one of our most recent purchases. AGCO Buys GSI. It is good be be part of an organization where you you feel the executives are doing something meaningful. Unlike my most recent previous employer that hasn't launched a new product in years and spent the capital on questionable custom software. Now they have some plan to start making products in China for the China market. Good luck. Here is a pic of a 220HP tractor I drove the other day.
