Did sumpthins

Started pulling apart the Buffalo today. Didn’t get very far, but effort was made and things removed are stored in safe space under lock n key. Do not trust Bad Cuz one wee bit. Need to tarp over the carport section I put there, but would like an assist for that. No rush: Buffalo still has a lid on her engine bay (for now,,,)

Had to have Da come up here with his ‘Yota for vehicle recovery. Tried using Bloo to pull the logs out of the woods. She’s more than capable IF and only IF the ground is solid. It wasn’t. OOOPSSS. 4X4 she ain’t.

Even being pulled she chewed shit up pretty good.

Logs 3, Dio 0. I’ll get ’em yet. Even if that means I get down there and cut them even smaller so that the yard tractor can get a grip on them. Really don’t want them to go to waste: Good Solid RedOak. It rots quick in contact with the ground. Need to move on it soon.

Sitting on the Array for a few days. Things are comfortable with it, having a reversing switch in place to move the array around. Doesn’t track the sun YET, but I can move it as needed through the day. And I certainly am not using enough juice to sweat it at this stage. This is more for deeper winter months when what little we get has to be spread around more. Summer months already proved to me that my array is larger than my bank (good thing, in some ways, but there’s more production than storage when the sun is strong.) Not able to rectify that bank issue as yet. Finance things need to be addressed deeper before I go down that road.

Still, my power situation is better than most everyone’s around me. I don’t have power outages where I have to wait on the power company to fix. (I am the power company, so to speak.)

yuppers, getting off my ass and doing something definitely helped the blahs I was feeling this AM. Coffee wasn’t turning the trick, DOING did. Usually does. Still not happy with the directions the world is choosing, but I can’t stop that: all I can do is keep my little world together and functional, as best I can,

and thats GOOD ENOUGH.

WINGS OF CHANGE

What happens when a wounded veteran, a computer genius, and a handful of fiercely independent misfits decide that the best way to change the world is to stop waiting for someone else to do it?

G has spent years flying from a wheelchair, learning to make the sky obey him even when his body won’t. T is a computer wizard with a mysterious past, an enormous extended family, and a talent for turning impossible ideas into working machines.

Together, they build things that shouldn’t exist.

Aircraft that push the limits of what remote flight can do. Technology born in garages and workshops instead of corporate boardrooms. And a community of people who have decided that family isn’t necessarily something you’re born into.

But building extraordinary machines attracts attention.

Soon G, T, and their growing family find themselves caught between government agencies, competing agendas, and people who would very much like to know exactly what they’re capable of. What began as tinkering and experimentation is becoming something far more consequential.

Because when you build something powerful enough to change the rules, eventually somebody comes looking for the keys.
