Yeah, not too bad for 82, Charlie - thanks for = asking.

Fell off the bed in early April trying= to install an overhead deflector vent.=C2=A0 As my wife said, luckly I land= ed on my head (that being the hardest part).=C2=A0 However, it turned out m= y innars rushed from the stomach area to the chest when the head hit and th= en the butt and knees came over my head (like a deep crunch sit up) and the = knee hit the floor which caused all the innard to slam back from the chest = area to the lower adbomine and apparently ruptured some weak stomach musce= l leaving me with a hernia=C2=A0 - no pain, but did notice something differ= ent about the region.=C2=A0 In any case, it was a hernia which I had repair= ed in April and am doing fine otherwise.=C2=A0 Also learned that my impaire= d balance (perhas judgement as well)=C2=A0 and standing on a bed do not mak= e a good combination.=F0=9F=98=81

Good to hear t= he rotary Rv-7 may fly soon.=C2=A0 Make sure you have photos and a video if = possible of that first flight.=C2=A0 I do miss my rotary, but am convinced = I did the smart thing giving it up.=C2=A0 Being distracted is one thing, b= ut not getting back to the point before the distraction is not a good condi= tion for safe flying.=C2=A0=C2=A0

I am still bui= lding PC boards and units for the Pmag electronic ignition but have closed= down the rotary unit production.=C2=A0=C2=A0

So= mostly staying home and trying to stay out of trouble there.

Glad to hear you and Tupper are doing well.
