Do I have to come up with a new title each time?

We finished the 100 hour inspection of the helicopter Friday afternoon. It required some more work above and beyond just the inspection, so I was kept busy through the end of the week.

My next assignment starting Monday will be to rebuild an entire engine for a Cessna 206. That will challenging and exciting. When it is all finished, we will run it on a test stand and make sure it works perfectly before sending it off to be put on its airframe. I'm not real sure where this one is going.

Josh has been having fun coming to visit me on my breaks. We have two 15 minute breaks and he likes coming up to spend them with me. Now that he is back in school, he will only be able to make the afternoon one, but it is fun that he is so excited to see what I am doing. He really liked the helicopter!

Today we went to a very large flea market with a couple other guys to do some one on one evangelizing with the people there. There is a large Hispanic population here and they make up most of the vendors and clients at the flea market so our Spanish skills were put to use. They enjoyed having us along and it was fun for us, too. We combined our weekly grocery shopping trip with the event and did some of our purchases there. We took the camera, but forgot to take pictures, so we hope to remember next time we go.

On Thursday, we had a couple over for dinner. The husband is a pilot going through his orientation. He is from Tasmania and she is from Australia. It was neat to hear their experiences and also to get some scoop as to the process a little bit. He is the first pilot here that I have gotten to know. Everyone at the hangar are mechanics.

We are very content here and God is providing for our spiritual growth and we are enjoying this time of relaxation from our customary busy schedules. We know things won't be this smooth for long, but we are enjoying the time while its here!
