November 23, 2006 - Thanksgiving Day

Yes, it's Thanksgiving Day.  The family -- and it's a big one -- always comes over to our house for Thanksgiving.  I didn't work on the RV-7 but I did clean up the workshop real well. 
FLASHBACK!  This is my workshop just prior to starting the project 2 3/4 years ago.  I had my toolkit but had yet to drill and deburr a single hole or edge-smooth an aluminum edge.   
I have turned the "library" wing of the basement into the parts storage area.  There the canopy sits, soon to be cut.  That's a Ka-8 glider canopy in the background.  All those books?  Yeah, I read most of them.  I used to read 30-40 non-fiction books a year -- that's before I started the RV project, of course..
And there it is:  the turkey.  One of two.  Plus ham.  Let's just say for the rest of the day I ate and drank too much.
