So we finished the plane in Eugene and came home to Oly Wednesday. We rolled into town about 8PM after a non-stop 5 hour drive. The plane is ready for the painter. We are on his schedule for October 1, and he told us it's about a 2 to 3 week process. This means we have about a month before we reclaim and truck the parts back to Washington where we will assemble and fly our amazing machine.
In the interim, our plan is to drive to Florida and shop for a house. If you have read the earliest entries in this blog you should recall that we had decided not to buy a house. Suffice it to say, that has changed. If we can find a house that she wants and we can afford, then we will do our level best to buy it. This is because she wants it. It is an uncomfortable experience to be without a home base. Some tolerate this better than others.
I was elated to hear from my Professor that I was receiving a favorable evaluation for the Summer quarter and my autobiographical writings. I still have a couple quarters of work to do before I will get my BA, but that's okay. Tomorrow I plan to visit the campus and seek a sponsor for another writing contract. If I can do this while travelling it will be great.
We have just a few details to attend to and then Wednesday morning we will hit the trail to Florida. I expect the trip to take a week of driving. Not that we couldn't do it quicker, but I'd like to enjoy the drive.
