Had a great weekend along with some flying time on Friday. With so much wind blowing I had to bring her down quickly. Getting too many warnings of high wind velocity.

Played a bit with my new camera. The menu system is a little intimidating but I’ll be getting used to it in no time.

Saturday we had some crazy storms in the morning triggering a bunch of tornado warning alarms but they all turned out to be false alarms.

Speaking of the camera, I wish I had it earlier and was familiar with the menu system and how to take some video or burst shots. I could have come away with some good lightening shots. I also purchased a couple of fast wide angle lenses and the best item was a converter for the Cannon EF lenses to the Sony E lens mounts. Now I don’t have to sent my old Cannon lenses out to the pasture.

When I start collecting some video and still images I’ll post here pronto. Looking forward to playing. Next weekend should be good. It will be a long one, three days but long enough.

Another item worth mentioning, I did have not heard from Angie in over a week now. I did get a money request for 65.00 but ignored the heck out of that. Maybe she will now get the hint. I have really hated doing this to her but she would not stop, get things together and take care of herself. She is 54 years old now and you would think she would have enough self esteem to fend for herself. I miss they way she used to be and I do think a lot of the blame can fall on me for letting her take advantage like she has. But.. it’s over ‘crossing fingers’ finally.

Now lets see if they pay me back….. I’m not going to hold my breath.

Heck, Bryan sent me this note telling me how he has this spreadsheet all set up and will start paying me back $30.00 at a time. With his schedule he thought he could do it by the end of July (I think that is what he said). Well, a have received one payment of $30.00 about three weeks ago and nothing since.

At times I like to ask myself, what do they think of themselves when they make promises like that and then don’t follow up on their commitments.

I am proud of the fact that I have never borrowed any money from any person, friend or family and not paid them every dime back. Sometimes I actually paid much more than I borrowed.
