Jacob, Doug and I went to the St. Cloud Regional Airport this morning to check out the myriad of airplanes, helicopters and other fun stuff as part of Granite City Days. Unfortunately, it was quite windy, so there weren't as many planes around as in years past (or so I'm told). We did have a nice pancake breakfast, though, and Jacob ate half his weight in sausage.

This picture is of a Chinook helicopter that the Army/National Guard had available for everyone to look at. We walked through it and checked out the pretty massive blades. Truth be told, though, Jake liked the airport fire truck and the snow plows more than anything else.

Tonight I expect we'll have family over and make kabobs on the grill. I've finished reading Physics of the Impossible and have started Mycellium Running. Sometime this week I hope to work on our garden (which has been overrun with grass, and maybe I can get some cleaning done in the office. I also have a bit of analysis to do on some data from Scheels and some troubleshooting of an interesting problem that has popped up.
