I picked up a propeller from a friend in Tennessee on the way home from Gulf Shores. I had it inspected and overhauled here in Michigan, and it looks great (my recent efforts to downsize photos taken with my iPad have been overly frustrating :x ). I'll post a photo on Facebook shortly.

Thanks Arash. I figured someone would pick up the gauntlet, but would have bet it would have been Ryan. Maybe he's already too busy with the calendar. :D

(I posted the picture of our newly acquired house from my PC. No problems there.)

Miles everyone, but me, needs a boat to go along with their airplane. Two places to hide all that $$. I guess you get a pass however since you have 2 planes :lol:

Frank, I put boats in the same category as wire wheels on cars: I love them as long as they belong to someone else. Karen's cousin has a boat, and we've already agreed to exchange the occasional ride. I already owe him one.

And, according to the previous owner, every drop of water applied to that lawn this summer fell from the sky. No use wearing out a perfectly good well pump if you don't have to!
