| We lied regarding a mundane work day this day. After a trip outside, to procure a libation suitable for our cocktail hour, we were invigorated by the Spring like conditions. The lower airfoils, wings, or lower planes are in the hands of the epoxy molecules. With the aroma of polymerization and crosslinking tainting the spring air, Ogre takes a giant step to his completion. |

| Wow 58 degrees here today. There is a light at the end of winter’s tunnel. Hoping, however, that the light is not that of a locomotive! A day of preparing for greater accomplishments to come. Interpreting the complex rigging diagrams and the installation of 44 eyelets to make the eventual rigging task a tad more palatable. Here is where the experience from my Jenny build pays off. |

| Well a day where if you close your eyes it feels somewhat spring like outside. Mr. G tried out an air screw and added bracing wires to the LG. |

| The roundels AKA German practice targets, are permanently attached and weathered. |

| Ogre may receive permanent lower air foils tomorrow. Getting a handle on the complex rigging wire pattern is a problem. None of my reference diagrams or photographs show a clear pattern. |
