I'm taking care of my friend's cats, and in trying to get to Vassar Ave, ended up on Michigan Ave instead. It's like a DCT family reunion up here.

Model airplanes w/ .049 engines

Great fun with neighbor kids. Lots of us made them in the ‘50’s. Build, glue (no sniffing then), paint, hook up the u-control lines, crash, repair, repeat.

So I set up a large $340K solar array, it took 7+ months to get PG&E to connect it to the grid, and what happened then?

Tons of model planes when I was 10-13, mainly WWII, model tanks, making them was fun, the real skill was in how they were painted. Also, painted tons of Airfix 1/72 figures (popular in England) https://us.airfix.com/shop/figures?encoded=JYzBCsIwEAX_JjdBLRR7WLx59l7KsibbGKhN2N1A-_emep03b-4LrfFJ9gZKMqftVNXNaTEWHT-0BrIsO_4JvvZpLJJD9YZV0ZNxbPMEjxSrsLpCkTEFuPb90DnNYu0DNyfsswTF0iKHA93558LlCw
