We had our family holiday cookie decorating party and dinner tonight. A little late but we got it done!

Finally completed my 1/144 scale UPS fleet.
I built the DC-8 about 20 years ago. It started life as a Revell United DC-8-61.
The 767-300 is an Aeroflot model by Russian maker Zvezda.
757-200 is a Minicraft NASA aircraft.
The Zvezda kit was by far the best quality and easiest build.
F**k ICE

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

Our Elf on a Shelf is extra creepy this year.

This video of me was shot somewhere over the Pacific a few years back on Christmas Eve. I’m not saying that’s Santa. But I’m not saying it isn’t! 🎅🏽

I’m getting a head start on Christmas morning cookery. Just finished 4 loaves of my mom’s Nizua: It’s a Finnish sweet bread flavored with cardamom, lots of butter, and topped with sliced almonds and turbinado sugar.
It’s the best.

I got to fly as safety pilot in my friend’s Mooney Bravo yesterday. He shot 2 RNAV approaches wearing foggles while I watched for traffic.
Coolest approach was the RNAV 24 down to mins with a circle to land on 15. Fun!

I scored 19 because I never had an AOL address. I did have an account with Quantum Link (Q-Link) which was the AOL predecessor for the Commodore 64/128. So, I’m awarding myself 2 bonus points for being extra old. Final score: 21 🤣

I watched our Cherokee Six takeoff Monday with its new owner at the controls. 😢
As I was recording, it dawned on me that I had never watched or heard our plane take off. Odd feeling.
My last flight as a pilot was Nov 22 when I test flew her after the annual (good thing I made a nice landing 😁).

This model has been sitting in my closet for over a decade. Figured it was time to put it together. Any guesses what it is?
The balsa flyer in the background is a Guillow’s Cessna 180 my daughter started in grade school (8 yrs ago?). I finally covered it for her. Flies great.

I’m really happy with how Soarin’ turned out.
I planned to 3D print a sign from Thingiverse. But it would be small & I didn’t like the existing designs.
So I went big with foam board. Sign is 46”w x 14”h. Letters, swoosh, & glider are 3D printed.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.”
Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment.
No questions asked.
No proof required.
Pass it on.
