First off I want to say
Happy Anniversary to my wife Denise. Tomorrow we have been married for 32
years. I think that is a major accomplishment in today's world.
Now I am going off on a
philosophic tangent for a moment. The three of us building on the B17 have
the same dedication to the project, as the wife and I have had in our
marriage. As you can see this is week 300 of a projected 104 week project
and we are still about 26 weeks from completion. (If we worked every week)
To the three of us, this project is NOT a destination, it is a journey. And
what a journey it has been. We all three have had wonderfully great highs
and dreaded terrible lows. But we have stuck together and are stronger
friends for it.
Well enough of my
dribble. Yes, we did work tonight. We sanded the cowls & nacelle
extensions. Then we added a glazing putty to help fill all the voids. Next
we sanded again and applied a heavy coat of primmer. With this done we
decided to let them cure completely and do all the same all over again, next
week.
Note: Congratulations
Denise and Gary, I have to agree, 32 years is a huge accomplishment.
