What is going on?

I haven't updated this blog in ages. What is going on??

Answer is - A LOT!!

A lot going on with my life and I am busy on all fronts. Did not gather enough energy to come back and update this blog. A quick disclaimer - No, I haven't lost interest in pit building and simming (!!) On the contrary, it grew and pushing me to start building soon.

As a first step, my basement finish work has started and ongoing for the last month and half at a slower than anticipated pace. Part of the reason is - I have added another ambitious project to build a proper Home Theater also in the basement. When finished, it will be a room to watch movies on large screen. That is the deal I made with my sweet heart for building the sim in the basement and potentially spend all my free time on the sim. She hatched this plan to build the Home Theater, so that I come back to watching movies together with her :-) But anyway, now the HT theater project grew on me and I am all over it researching and building a properly sound treated theater room will all the bells and whistles I could afford.

Meanwhile, on the simulator front, I have built two more computers and bought PMDG 737 aircraft (detailed reasons later..), and FSBuild software for flight planning. Also, during the July 4th weekend, I went to Denver and attended the International Flight Sim conference. I will probably write about it in some other post.

So, I have lot more to write about including the cool xbox stuff I am doing right now and make few announcements :-) stay tuned (in a hurry to go to work right now..)
