I am lucky, after 45 years of marriage my wife pretty much knows what I want to wear. My casual wear is very similar to yours. When it is coat and tie she picks the colors etc. Lately the coat and tie is for when I am at a dog show and showing my dog and ones of friends.

Yep, same here, she picks colors, but us being married for 32 years, she pretty much knows what I'm going to wear and she's not giving up on trying to influence my choices...................LMAO !

I'm back, not from our cruise cause we never left...... Thanks to Delta Airlines we missed our ship departing port by 1 entire day. What a cluster this was, they cancelled and rescheduled or flight 4 times and the last time was for Monday.......... ship left port Sunday. Needless to say we were extremely upset and still are..............

Ok, back to the home made flapper project. I welded the laser cut 304 stainless flappers Monday and still working on the gusset/counter weights for the face of the flaps. Should be 100% done in a week or so.

That sucks. Weather related? We leave Wed for Costa Rica. Wish me luck. Boat work will have to wait till May.
Flappers are looking great.

Ryan,
WIshing you a great and eventless flight, thank you on the compliment.

Padraig,
I booked flights through Expedia so they were the middle man in talking with Delta. According to Expedia Delta has agreed to refund the total ticket price in cash and not a flight voucher, that I have in writing. ETA on refund 45 days, I'm not holding my breath, we'll see how this goes. Still waiting on the insurance company to issue the cruise refund. Thank you as well for the compliment. Silicone rubber for inside clamp liners are on order, still need to weld on the counter weight/gusset on the flap. Getting close to the end.


GONNA TRY TO FIRE UP THE NEW EXHAUST THIS WEEK, VIDEO/SOUND CLIP FORTH COMING.......................
