Wow what a day. Surprisingly I was not fatigued at the end of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Today, SAM had an event at the church, a funeral dinner, and is not back as I write this so I expect I have some time to tell the world of my day.\u00a0 I awoke at the customary late time, fixed breakfast and cleaned out the dishwasher.\u00a0 After that I checked email and the ubiquitous Facebook plus checked the weather &#8211; yucky for the rest of the week &#8211; and just sat and watched the sunshine filtering through the rather leafless trees in the back yard.\u00a0 You could say we are at peak color but about 50% of the leaves are down due to the rain of several days and whatever E, S, W winds we have had.\u00a0 Today the winds shifted from SE to SW so I got out the leaf blower and swept the driveway while taking advantage of the SW winds to lift the leaves in the exact direction I wanted them to go &#8211; yea. Having a few minutes after lunch, I cleaned out the storm water pickups &amp; drains of our down-the-hill piping system (we are down the slope from the road and in the<\/p>\n<p>winter the salt\/sand trucks deposit a LOT of sand that works its way into the drain system). The Amateur Radio Allstar node has been almost non-stop today and I am listening to it while waiting for SAM to return.<\/p>\n<p>Next week we are winterizing the summer &#8220;cabin&#8221; so it is officially the end of the season.\u00a0 This year has gone fast!\u00a0 There were few major milestones and few medical events,\u00a0 I spent a lot of time at the airport this year and moved much shop equipment out there so I could do some woodworking, cleaning and minor repairs needed to Inspiration III. In the course of the summer I was re-introduced to the aviation community that I have let languish since my flying buddy of decades died about 2002. I do not have an overwhelming desire to fly again, certainly not in &#8220;fly high go fast&#8221; machines, but every once in a while I get a little tickle to go up again in a LSA.\u00a0 The hangar is bare except for Inspiration III and another dolly.\u00a0 I will clean them out this week and plug her into home power.<\/p>\n<p>Opps, SAM just arrived &#8211; got to go.\u00a0 BFN<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday I was a bundle of energy and seemed to accomplish a lot.\u00a0 This included making a tour of my Geocaches, cleaning sticks off the roof plus a myriad of other necessary but little tasks like putting the deck table into the bar, taking the tools out of the truck and putting them in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3445"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3445"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3445\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3449,"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3445\/revisions\/3449"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3445"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3445"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.charleswmoore.org\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3445"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
