Aloha and Welcome to my small speck of cyberspace! Dec 8, 2010 is the birth date of my blog. Never had one before, but my son encouraged me to have one, and it seemed like a good way to at least keep a log of my RC airplane building and flying. With the initial design kicked off by my son, I'll carry on from here and have fun with it. Now that I have it, I will use it to also keep track of my oil painting efforts, and any other ideas, hobbies, travels, or whatever else that come up. LIFE IS GOOD!

Update on 02/25/2011. It's been a few months since I began this blog, and I am enjoying creating and having it! I like documenting the things I have done in my hobbies, and sharing with my small family. I think Jer and Tad actually view it fairly regularly, as a means to see what I've been up to lately. At worst, it serves as a reference for my own use.

Update on 12/22/2011. This blog stuff is habit forming. My blog is a year old now, and I make an entry about every other day or so as that seems to be the frequency of doing something in one of my hobbies. Like my hobbies, this blog is a lot of fun, and it has become in itself another hobby that I enjoy.

Years are flying by...update on 01/11/2013. Still enjoying maintaining this blog even though hardly anyone sees it. I don't advertise it anywhere or to anyone, and it is mainly just a way for me to keep my own notes and thoughts on my flying, painting, and cars. If a stranger happens upon it, I think it is by pressing NEXT at the top of the current blog they are visiting, lol. It's a great device for me.

August 2014: still here! Took up flying RC helicopters one year ago and got hooked. Had flown micro Helis up to then, but got serious with 450 size for a couple months, then bought the Goblin 500 and Gaui X5 . Also got my Boxster in April 2013. Most importantly, Ariel was born 12/02/12 followed by Skylar 07/20/13, and they are little beacons of joy in our lives. Life is indeed good!!!

Hell of a Day!

In a very good way it was a hell of day at the field!  I got in a pack on the G500 when Bob B showed up with pipe material for our two new sections of safety barrier on the west end of the pits.  Helped him put it in the shed.  He departed, and I put in a second flight on the G500.  Ashton arrived during the flight, and saw Bob departing.  I then helped Ashton take the pipe material back out of the shed and move it to the west end of the pits for assembly.   After helping Ashton place the pipes for the south section of fence, he went home to get a wrench and hammer.  I got in a few flights of the G500 and X5 in that intermission.  Ashton came back and we put the orange mesh on the fence, then placed pipes and orange mesh for the north section.  Somewhere in there I got in another flight on the G500 and two on the G630.  The new fences look awesome and gives added protection to those in the pits.

To top it off, I then mowed the field in anticipation of rain the next few days at least.  While not tall, the grass sure was thick and the mower tossed lots of cuttings!  Our field is looking awesome!
