Today

Pouring nose cones, boat tails, and cutting parts for rocket kits. My order for more parachutes and other parts has still not shown up yet and it now says today. Usually it takes 2 days from Vegas to our studio but with Christmas it’s taking longer. Sorry for the delay.

Working on the Christmas Present I can’t show you. The cold is gone but I’m not pushing it too hard working in the shop when it’s 49 degrees. Doing what I can upstairs.

Big race tomorrow and I’ll be racing these. “Sunday Slot Car Fun” will cover the race at Stephen Farr Jones’s incredible big track this Sunday.

This painting by Rick Herter captured me as I was at that age. Although I never worked the fields I did play in many an open field in the country side with my dog while witnessing such a moment. I loved airplanes and still do. They and the dream of flight always keeps one young.

I’ve always loved the J-3 Piper Cub. I have several RC and free flight models. Everytime I fly one I’m in the field watching my dream realized!

  1. That looks like a Norman Rockwell painting. Real Americana. I have always loved the Piper as well. A great little airplane.
