Summer in Duluth GA

Angie and I took the sports car to one of the many parks in Gwinnett county to walk. We saw signs for "free food / Comida". Being that I am always up for a snack, I decided to see if I could get some. Sure enough, they are handing out Breakfast and Lunch kits. We got a "lunch" and ate it in the park. I was pleased that there was no political literature in the bag only the normal commercial stuff for the products and the company that assesmbled the kits. It was a weird expereince. I have no idea of who these meals were intended for. I entered the Humvee in the Duluth car show. That was fun. It actually won second place in the "pickup" category. Car shows are like that.. somewhat self-congratulating. We signed up for drone home delivery. Although it is very unlikely we will ever use it. This squirrel was particularly tenacious on the feeder.

It has been cold in Atlanta. So cold our lake froze like last year. Although it was not as cold as it was last winter. We are expecting this snap to be the last of it for this year. The leaves are emerging from buds. Warm days are not far off.

Back from several days in Minnesota. Cold! I am not accustomed to the cold anymore. It really does happen. I am sure I could easily get used to it again, I guess. I drove some large equipment in MN. This one even had my name on the front. It was good trip. It felt good to be working with Engineers. It is warm in Atlanta today. The tops are down on the convertibles. We had a chance to take some nice walks. The picture in the dark is Douglas after all the big snows up in NY. It looks like it is still coming.

One month down already this year. It looks like it will be a fast year. The busier you are the faster it all goes for sure. Besides the organizations outside of work, work and all sorts of stuff we have been in Georgia, Florida, Michigan and Minnesota. Here are some pics of the plane and some of the fun. Lots of smooth power. I think I have flown 10 different 172s over the last few years. This one is special. It is pretty much the only one that is hanger-kept. We fly to the land of "Dawgs" and we posed with our "crew car". It is nice getting Marshaled in. They are great at KAHN.
