Good Morning

I have blogger's block.  Either I can't write,  or I simply haven't done anything to write about.  Yes all winter I did little to occupy myself.  But when Spring came,  there seemed to be a flurry of activity.  I bought a "light sport" aircraft.  Not a new $150K "light sport".  An old classic $20K light sport. Last Friday I flew around a bit in my "new" old airplane with a mentor who is an instructor to get "checked out".  While I was trying to figure out how I was going to pay for that airplane;  this last weekend I went to two car shows.  I took my beater VW to a Kent Island car show on Saturday.   Then Sunday I took my beater TR6 to a car show in Easton.  I tried to rest up from that.  Then on Tuesday I left for Asheville driving.  Driving wife's car fortunately..  It is sweet.  Then a couple days in A-ville.  I got to play on the stage at my buddy's Cantina and I sang a song called "Motorsickle Bill".  Drove home through the mountains in gorgeous weather.  One short night's sleep and went to New Jersey with my buddy while he picked up his car.  Again gorgeous weather.  Road trips over,  and ready to fly the little "Luscombe",  but now the weather is stormy.  And I'm getting behind on the mowing.

Today I woke up with nothing planned to do.  Of course I have a lot of things I could or should do.  But there was nothing I had to "go" to and no time to be somewhere.  It's a stormy Tuesday with no agenda.  The sun keeps peeking out at intervals.  I could try to wax that little plane for Saturday's Horn Point Fly-in.  If it doesn't get too wet there are a lot of chores.  I have correspondence I should attend to.  The hangar is a complete mess.  And lots of other projects.  Wife would like a yard of mulch for her new garden.

I liked the way my wake up went this morning.  When I got up I wasn't compelled.  I was wondering what I might wind up doing today.  I didn't expect I'd be writing to you.  I didn't expect to see the sun.  I like it this way.  It's less stressful.  They say not getting enough sleep may be the cause of the obesity epidemic.  So I wrote to you.  Now what shall I do?  I'm  leaning toward getting that mulch and maybe a cheeseburger on the way home.  I'm to be very busy Friday and Saturday.  But tomorrow......and hopefully for most days... nothing planned.  I don't think I'll shave,  but I guess I better get dressed.

Peace you guys.     LLITTY     ::::+::::
