30 May, 2008 Flowers, Trees & Tech









Finally planted some flower seeds today. Sort of late in the season.
They might still make flowers, if the trumpet vine doesn't overpower them.



Walked down one side of the runway and sawed down sprouts that were
getting too big for comfort.



And I finally experimented with the vhs to hard drive to dvd
recording machine. It belongs to the EAA Chapter 1218. The
instruction manual is 104 pages long. I only need two functions, Come
ON. I copied two vhs tapes from Ted Businger's aviation library
collection and burned two dvds. Hooray! There are 10 more tapes in
this stack, then there are more at the EAA hangar waiting to
transfer. It's really easier than the translated manual tries to
explain (Chinese to Japanese to Russian to Swahili to Swedish to
English, or thereabouts, incomprehensible). Of course, it's not
hooked to live tv for recording. That's a whole 'nother ball game.

Another day. Wind blew. G'ma Airplane
