Wood Stove

I rebuilt a wood stove I had in storage. The only textual items on the stove is "Made in West Germany". After puzzling about how to repair the broken leg (everything from welding with tungston rod to fabricating a splice), I found a similar replacement foot. It was similar, so I ended up buying two in order to make it look and set right. It was a fun "little" project. It cost me about $150 in materials and probably took me about 8 hours. I am looking forward to getting it fired up at some point. Since it is going back into storage I am wrapping it up with as much rust inhibitor as I can. I bought some VCI paper for the effort.

We are getting a new alternator in the plane, working on the house in NY, and working on the boat. Boat pics in the water are forthcoming. We are bringing the boat back from the edge. A must before I get to the remodeling on the house in Duluth. I moved into a new office at work. It is bigger, desk is big. It is all about land reform. Always unpopular with some. Uncomfortable for all. I particularly like the pic I got of the guy living in the American dream home, Dog, TV, Stuff. Lola, Angie and I explored Atlanta this weekend. Travel is a state of mind, commonly not a destination. It is much more about communication and culture rather than geology and geography.

Angie and I had a full day Sunday. Went to Church, Nice Brunch, some excitement dancing with clouds in the plane and did some errands and so on.
