McKee

 We made it to the McKee’s in Louisville for a visit last month.  That’s always an interesting experience. Not only do we get to see them, we get to catch-up on their latest projects.  The newest project is the door we’re standing in front of.  I’m led to believe it’s called an elvish door. Not just an elvish door, it has an alterego.  From the other side it’s a dwarvish door. A dwarvish door with cool hinges. REALLY cool hinges. It looks good in their living room, behind that lamp that looks pretty good too. The hand carved inlaid floor in the hallway isn’t new.  It was here last time we were. A person could spend a long time picking out all the detail.  Remember that Lincoln engine and transmission in the garage that belongs in the Valkyrie? http://steveandjudystravelblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/remember-valkyrie.html It has changed a little. Now it has a wheel attached to it. 

I’ve been practicing thinking in helicopter

 You can’t just pick up the controls, put a helicopter in the air, then figure out what the controls do.  Well, you can, but there will be a lot of crashing. So never-mind me, walking around the campground, eyes fixed on the imaginary craft I’m controlling with my thumbs.  I’m working on banked turns. 

I’m a baby robin

  And I’m hungry. But no-one will bring me anything to eat. Maybe if I lie on the ground and look pathetic. Maybe if I lie on the ground, fall over and look really pathetic. Maybe if I lie on the ground, fall over and look really pathetic, and look like I just got run over by a truck… I guess nothing will help.
