This project has given so many people jobs and missions this winter! Nana bakes cookies each day. Popper delivers cookies and helps with project. Steve turns down paid work to come here daily to do fun work...and eat Nana's cookies. The Fan club has to go out frequently to build guns for the...

I arrived in the shop tonight to find the airplane builder with #3 strapped to his back in our retro hand-me-down Gerry Carrier! :-)

Really enjoying this build! We are meeting new friends and learning new things about old friends...like how skilled they are with a milling machine!! We will keep the pictures and fun stories coming. My job thus far is providing encouragement and sustenance. ;-) maybe I will get to do more if...

Life is good! Every few weeks, FBF manages to get more of my junk OUT of his shop and more new tools INTO his shop! That is a good thing. Everyday he manages to find a reason to use the milling machine. Cannot wait to see what fun ensues when the new airplane build starts. Never a dull moment...

Here is our awesome flagpole!

Ok...we will do this one at a time! That was their departure to the airs how. This is them taking off from the grass strip.

Hello, all! I am going to upload some new photos if I can. Internet is not on my side tonight!

We have moved to the farm, and are steadily working our way through the boxes and getting settled. The hanger is currently getting some pallet racks installed...so thankful for that extra temp storage option. Photo will take a while, since we are still operating off iPad and iPhone until...

Ompha: Thanks for stove ideas. And, no, the pink door is still there. He got the airstrip seeded, but has not really spent a ton of time in the hangar other than to get the floor finished and cleaned and then get the heat and stuff taken care of. Covering the pink door can be done in the...

Well, Ladies and Gentlemen, apparently retiring, harvesting, working on hangar and house projects, and preparing to move to aforementioned house must take up all of my husband's previous GJ time! :-) There is now air, heat, gas, and plumbing in the hangar. But the most important improvement of...

Wow...that is one SHINY floor! :-) Good job...

He also took a quick break to witness the kids ******** riding on the donkeys...and one break to take me out to eat for my birthday. That was quite a schedule sandwiched in between 5 hour drives between KY and OH! He is my hero. :-)

Wingnut, there were probably only 6 pics, because he was filthy dirty and working non-stop for 6 entire days!! I was a sewer/septic widow for the week, but it was worth it for the cost-savings and the chance to have him work hard and get his hands dirty. I was very proud of his accomplishments...

Ok...I had better get the car packed now and get up there to the farm...and stop posting in FBF's name. But I do believe he would have a similar response to being mistaken for USAF. :-) Or an older vet. Now he does have some gray hairs...but those were mainly brought on by his growing Fan...

Gentlemen, this was a serious labor of love!! He was out there well before the crack of dawn, and then well into the night after boys were in bed. I never had any doubts, but I sure am glad that it is (almost) over! I know his heart will not be into the home renovations until this shop is...

Reminder: The rooms that will be in the hangar "addition" that is being finished off are an office, a water heater room (I think), a bathroom, and a guest suite. I was initially a little leary of having a bathroom whose walls didn't extend to the ceiling, but most of the time it will just be...

Wow...I have been gone a while. Love the bowling lane creations!! I will have to control the urge to make everything out of the lanes now, or Mr. FBF will not have any left for his shop tables. Looking forward to the work that will begin soon on the office area. That should make for some...

SpeedinLemon, Thanks for stopping by! We haven't done much in the last few months. Just getting the lighting and electrical finished this month. Hope to start the office/bathroom/guest room next month. Waiting for the team to finish the reno at FBF's parents' house, so they can start on our...

I hear that once the ex-Taliban fighters come out of their caves and return to their villages, they are really big into refurbishing their garages with their separation pay they receive! Watch out Jack Olsen...you might have some competition over there...I will keep my eyes peeled! :-)

Final pics of the floor stain will be taken next weekend when we get back up there. We should also get a few test patches of the sealer down, too, so we can show that. I think that we decided that we might wait on heat until a little later next year. We really won't be in it much this...
