Journal Notes
- Refuel and top up oil on arrival.
- AME says "beautiful shape".  Did a precautionary oil change with 'CamGuard' corrosion prevention additive.
- In RW, dd a dump run this morning.  Too rainy to ride with Shafer as hoped.  Got my office/man cave tidied up after the window was replaced this week.  Finally settled?  Great flight.  No hard drive failure.  Marg, Jenn and Lexy went to a fabric/quilt show.  Lots of banging outside as the siding replacement continues today.  Tomorrow I head to Ottawa for two weeks of training.  No flying again until Thanksgiving weekend.
