I made a run to Belleville, Illinois for the Belleville Flyers' Swap Meet. It had a pretty light turn-out, but was still a good time.

yes, did you buy any goodies? The yellow and red glider is a rather classic design, even pre-war. It looks lake a Rohnadler.

Just an over-price engine mount. Patrick bought the Black Widow and a Brodak See Pea to put it on.

Yeah, I was looking real hard at that sailplane, but I got projects backed up out the door. We may meet again some time in the future, but I got to try to control my stuff right now.

Yup, know what you mean, Kim. I'm looking over stuff I've collected over the past half a century, now deciding what to keep and what not to whittle things down to manageable.

Have many started projects electronics, vehicles, house, modelling, etc. Now in my last trimester of life, not as energetic as younger, how to finish out life as a winner in the most important stuff tempored with recreation.

Next Saturday is the swap for us east coasters. Largest one on the east side. I'm looking forward to seeing old friends and hopefully find some treasures.
