Sometimes I buy things for my grandchildren that I want for myself. It's one of the benefits of the job. Today I worked on one of Colby's Christmas presents. It took me probably 2 hours to build. They are very cool little models but also very tricky to assemble. My eyesight was the biggest challenge as you have to insert these very fine little tabs into matching slots and then bend then over.
Do you think it will fly?? Probably not! The little Fokker doesn't even have an engine!
Colby is working on his (Space Shuttle), but since he's not quite as obsessive as his Grampa, his will be a two day job. I promise you a pic when he finishes.
I know I said I was going running today but things changed. My leg is probably not ready to go, and yet I still almost went. After I got back from the gym at about noon I went and cleaned out the neighbours driveway, thinking I'd go right afterwards. Ten minutes out on the tractor decided for me. It just wasn't gonna be worth it. No traction, very cold, very windy, and a sore achilles. Even an idiot can figure that one out!
