I do like the outdoors and nature. I dont like the naive view. I like the real thing. Sometimes it can be scary and sometimes it hurts. I still like nature. I like wilderness. Camping in North Georgia is quite nice. There is a alot going on as usual, at work and at home. I think I am going to sell the humvee. I dont need 5 cars. I have some more work to do to it, but after I get what I have planned done. Its gonna hit the road. It will still take me awhile with my current level of productivity and the number of projects I have in flight. I will be up in NY again soon probably and I have travel plans currently to Maine, New Hampshire and Japan. I am making vacation plans mostly in the Caribbean. That is the push to get us over 100 Countries. I also still have to get to Wyoming, to finish off the 50 US states. I did yard work today. Mostly weeding before it got hot out, but also grading. I ran the Bobcat after the dirt settled more around the house as part of the drain/vents I had p...

I went to the PDK airshow today. PDK is the second busiest General Aviation airport in the United States following only Teterboro NJ. I don't fly into PDK yet. I will at some point for sure. The weather wasn't very good for an airshow. In fact the weather was beyond my personal minimums for getting out and just flying around, without aerobatics. I also went over to my future house, signed some paperwork, planned and measured some. I have access to the property, which is nice. My reality check today indicates there isn't really that much needed to move in, plumbing mostly. Since it is a foreclosure there were some elements of a "scorched earth" approach to the retreat. The scuttle efforts were primarily in the form of ripping out all the copper plumbing and air conditioner. It is easy for me to fix.

A lot of stuff going on with me this week. I am selling my Mom's Condo in Rochester, NY and I have generally been socializing a lot in the evenings. I have met a lot of new folks. It is amazing what happens when you *try*. Some of the bigger news is that my offer was accepted on a piece of property. This is the same property that I thought got away from me. Weird. Usually, when a property gets a way.. it gets away. So, I will be working to close the deal soon. The house is very convenient to shopping and to work, but is also very serene and "woodsy". It is on a small lake. This may be the most practical house I have ever purchased. Of course, since it is property I am buying, it needs work. Nothing compared to what was done in the past though. It will be fun.
