Strykaas:

I'm hanging in there. Things kind of exciting where you live, eh? I don't believe 99% of what I see in the French media or what French politicos say. I remember my trip there, and the fact that EVERYONE was nice to me and many people thanked me (who had nothing to do with it) for America's participation in the liberation.

I'll always be a builder- it's the only thing that keeps me from going insane during the long, northern Michigan winters.

I've joined a club about 85 miles from here that has a paved runway, so perhaps my fast airplanes will have a better chance of surviving.

Regards.
