annual dinner, presentation and renovation

Another busy weekend is almost over. It's amazing how time flies when one has a lot to do.
I knew it's going to be challenging to prepare a presentation about gliding championships for "pure powered pilots and wifes" audience. It took me a while to put it together but based on the awesome feedback I got it looks like I succeeded. It was a very nice (and long) evening with beautiful home made food, funny talks and of course good Australian wine and beer.

We keep working in the former workshop room and progressing very fast. Everybody agrees that this room cannot be used as a workshop anymore. It's just to good now. And we haven't finished yet.

I love colorful walls. It took me a while to convince the boys that the "workbench wall" will really look good painted beige. This is the same color all the ceiling beams, window and door frames will have. I painted this wall today and everybody loves it. It's now called Marta's wall.

It was a beautiful sunny and warm day today. Time to slowly start the season ...

it's running!


The new runway is waiting for the last sealing coat. It already looks landable to me.
