New House! Portuguese, and Blairsville GA Aviation

I am closing on my house Wednesday the 25th. Finally! There sure were a lot of hoops to jump through. There is quite a bit of work to do, a roof, air-conditioning and so on. I have to be moved out of my apartment on Aug 2nd.

We took a long plane ride today up to Blairsville, GA, up in the mountains, in and around the clouds.

It feels good to do something that is good for yourself for the first time. You have to get over the natural resistance of something new (the biggest hurdle), plan, execute, and reflect. I have now moved into reflect. It was a marathon for me. I am planning on running in the Berkshire Heritage 5k later this summer too. Maybe another one, if there is another one close by. I fueled up last night on some of Bonnie's most excellent Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies. My exercise bike generator project is working now pretty good. I ended up using the motor out of a paper folding machine. I still have some testing to do to it to see if I have the right ratios. I am thinking about creating a website d...
