Winter vs Spring

Really hard to tell if it's still Winter or Spring here!

Lindsay is off for Spring Break!

     We took her out to breakfast this morning. Her and her mom went shopping this afternoon but she was good, she only bought one thing. Then we watched tv and played (magnetic) darts this afternoon.

What's Going on Here???

I have the week off from work.

Decided to stitch the Cub wings and hopefully get them taped

and ready for paint.

Freezing Drizzle and Freezing Rain

St Louis has had both the past couple of days. Fortunately, all the weather-guessers had everyone scared so there wasn't much traffic on the road on Friday. I let my people go at 11 AM and came on home.

I drove out to the airport yesterday morning. It was a bleak, drizzly day. The airport manager and myself were the only two out there besides a lone horse who stays at the Greenhouse next to us.

The horse was shy, would't come up to me.

I drove around the airport to see if I could find anything to take a picture of. All the airplanes in the shadeport were dry, the winds were light. I went out to the tiedowns and found this poor "Vintage" 172 looking as if someone had just taken in out of the freezer.

The temperature was right at 31 degrees.

I spent fifteen minutes walking around the airplane, being careful not to impale myself on any of the icicles. More freezing rain is expected early Sunday morning.
