I was at Chip's Christmas party and saw this picture of Chip's beautiful Stearman hanging on his wall. I recognized the picture instantly as a Bruce R. photo.

Chip also had this custom table made from a radial engine that had once powered Double Trouble.

| I was out at the Skypark doing some maintenance. I took a break and walked around the northern end of the runway. I noticed his big pond off to the side. All this time, I had never noticed it before. |

I wonder how this boat got washed so far inland?

| Looking south with the runway in the distance. It looks a lot different from ground level than it does in the air, approaching at 70 mph. |

| Driving home, enjoying a beautiful winter sunset. |

Are you sure this isn't Hawaii? No, it is Baltimore in February.

|
| This is probably as wet as I've ever seen the area in front of my hangar. An absolute lake. |

Pulling the RV-7 out for some time in the sun. Notice the snow.

|
| I've been helping Rich and Nhu-An build their RV-10. |

| Grandson Teddy could be an airplane nut like myself! |

|
| He seems to like airplanes. |
