That sounds like a perfect day spent. And remember that time spent at the
airport is not deducted from your lifespan!

You can tell you're a hangar rat when you spend more time futzing around
in the hangar than you actually do flying.

Example: flew 1.1 hours today- spent four hours washing/waxing the plane
(still not done), emptying garbage cans, adjusted the gas powered tug,
played with the dog, tried to fly my son's RC plane on the ramp (not a
great idea when it nearly hit my plane), took a nap on a patio chair, got
the wife to help wax the plane (even on mother's day), and then came home.

It's kind of our summer home at the airport- wait until we start the Weber
up again, then it'll be even longer hours!

I just have to get my wife convinced that there is value in filing five
volumes worth of Jepp charts and I'll have it made!
