That is my thought as well Morris. Keep the guy that signs the paycheck happy and everyone is happy.

Hello John, what are you up to today?
Nothing was planned today, just put some stabilizer in the fuel tanks of the two 56's ..then slacked all day..

Sure is good that we have this warm spell happening, just wish we had some more daylight hours. Got the drive train in place for transporting, the cabs in place and the exhaust off. Still need to finish off the steering as the borgeson joint was being stubborn and the daylight was fading then the box gets cargo strapped in place and then the truck is ready for transport. Tuesday is finish the truck day as tomorrow is my run around day. Tonite is take it easy night, belly is full and an apple pie is baking in the oven, cats are holding my legs down and the TV is getting watched, finally a night of quiet.

Can't remember ever needing fuel stabilizer.

It`s warm here too but the wind is really blowing. About Feb the days should be longer. Even my cats hate those short, cold days of winter.

My days start late so by 430 when I'm in my stride I have to shut down and put the tools away as the sun is starting to set and I lose a couple of hours work time every day. If all goes right I'll be moving the truck into my shop on wednesday night and I'l only have 1 load left to pick up, will need both engine hoists for that one as theres a few heavy and awkward pieces to load.

Good morning, day depending where you are Shaun, Grant and John.
Another nice one above freezing which is rare for us, too bad I had to waste part of it with Christmas shopping. Only 12 more shopping days to the big day.

Today is the grand tour day, wasn't paying attention and missed the bus stop so now I get to go downtown and start doing my business there. Should be some good scenery in the mall and office buildings, time to stagger around lost hoping a secretary or 2 finds me. Warm spring day out here.

Very sunny and blue skies here.
But it is only 3 here and I doubt will go much higher.
Beautiful day for flying though and i leave soon.
How are you doing Morris?
