April 26th

We hacked the shrubbery in the garden until the green waste bin was full, then I went and met Randy at the airport.  We decided to fly up to Oroville again, as the restaurant at the golf course there is open.

After lunch, we flew back.  Interestingly we went to the West of some hills we usually go to the East of, and there's a whole runway there that's not on the charts.  There was a King Air parked on it, so it's not like it's an unprepared strip, or anything.

The green waste was picked up yesterday, so I cut the grass.  It's been two weeks since I last did it, which wouldn't normally be an issue, but now it's warmed up and the sprinklers are on, it's grown a ton, so the green waste bin is about 1/3 full already.

We went to the airport and met Randy for lunch, then went and took the plane out so I could practice some stuff.

I went to the airport after work and changed the oil in the plane.  While I was there, I gave it a bit of a clean to get the bugs off.

April 18th

We flew up to Oroville for lunch - Vic and me in my gyro, Randy in his gyro, and Chris in his RV-6.  We flew to the East and under Beale's airspace because we're too lazy to call NorCal approach and fly through it.

After lunch, we flew back along the river, to the West of Beale.

I'm now due for some maintenance, oil change, pre-rotator cleaning and so on.

The new gas tank for the lawn mower came in, so I spent a little while installing that.

We tried to watch "Picard" on CBS All Access, but there was a lot of stopping and starting - I'm pretty sure our interwebs are working OK, and the app on my phone crashed, so I'm thinking this is a CBS problem.  I'm not very impressed with it.

April 13th

One of the branches of the shrubbery down the side of the house collapsed because it's not being supported any more, so I got to take that down and jam it in the green waste bin.

April 12th

It was a grubby looking morning, so we mostly worked in the garden.  I took down some more of the shrubbery next to the house, and talked Chris through some electrical work on his gyroplane :o)
