Yesterday the UC and I went to the local university's exhibition hockey game. The Nipissing Lakers played host to the US NCAAP Lake Superior College Lakers. It was a pretty skilled match from the US side with some great plays. The US was clearly the better team besting the hometown Lakers 7-1.

Following the Lakers' game, we went to GT's model airplane "workshop" for some design lessons. Here the UC and GT go over some jet propulsion theory.

Before capping the evening off at home in front of the big screen watching Saving Grace, we dined to a scrumptious Bento Box at the Kabuki House.

I had no idea GT was into airplanes. Next time I'm up, I wanna see the workshop and especially the flying wings he had hanging on the wall.

He's also got a large, 3 foot, Spitfire his dad built 30 years ago that he's working on getting flight ready.

Note, UC knows nothing about propulsion.

Fins - I'm not sure about that comment - There's a kinda propulsion he's way too aware of!!
