What did you do today....other than work on your car!?

[71RRHI]

Stopped by a small cruise in at a Dairy Queen in Marysville WA

 

[Charles Cook]

Went on a tow with a buddy, what a mess we had to clean up. The drunk driver that caused the accident left the scene with only 3 wheels. A Good Samaritan followed the driver and turned him in.

Pumpkins, small children, bad beer, pretty much anything

The dermatologist, skin doctor at the Mather VA, did a couple of skin cancer biopsy's on me this morning.
Now to await the results, findings, on them.
This is what i look like bandaged up, on the one that she did, on the nose.
Didn't like the needle going in, to numb up the area.

Had my surgery this past Thursday....did the right side of my nose 3 years ago and now left side. IIRC, I have 6 cuttings now in various places on my face and base of my neck.

Do you fly with the boat on the pontoon?

Right around 5pm I got a call from a good friend who was freaking out because their house was on fire. We hurried over, not knowing what to expect. Sure as ****, it was going up in flames. Not much to do other than try to keep them calm and provide moral support. The garage was about the only thing that survived unscathed. The gas grill on the back deck erupted in a huge fireball which entered the house through an open kitchen window. The upper level and most of the main floor were completely gutted.

We stuck around until it was over and a contractor got everything boarded up, then ran home to gather some clothes and necessities to help them get through the next couple of days. They got out with the clothes on their backs, and that’s about it. They are staying at a hotel near their house so they are readily available for the insurance adjuster and clean up crew. The fire chief said the house and contents are a total loss due to the fire, smoke and water damage.

Oh wow! Fire is my worse nightmare and glad it's never happened. I'm picky about no smoking, no candles (my sister left some burning years ago...didn't total out the house at least) and all my grilling is done behind the shop and at the far edge of the carport. I also keep some extra clothing out in the shop just in case the house goes up. The shop is about 30 feet away from the house. Sure hope all goes well during the rebuild and glad everyone is ok.

Been cleaning out my shop and 'storage' trailer. Got slowed down a bit after having another cancer growth on my nose removed on Thursday. I'll be glad when the trailer is finally gone....

Well there'd be no other reason to put it there! :0)

 

[Black_Sheep]

Headed to Sal’s for a car show…

Would it be better to have the bow pointing forward or would that have a worse effect on the plane? And how much does it affect the plane being there as well?

I like to live Dave. Ever see a tear drop racer... Wings go blunt edge first and so do boats. If I flew it the other way the air tumbling off the back would stall the tail.

As for how it flies, general don't know it's there... until you try to land in a cross wind that's under the fuselage and into the boat.

Yeah, I know about the wings being blunt leading edge but man, never thought dang near flat blunt would work lol and didn't even think about how a cross wind would make it act. Thanks! I know a 'little' bit about planes but you just taught me more!

G code? Not familiar with codes on B body cars but with E cars, a G would be a teen. Anyways, was the price righteous?
