Hello from freezing cold Denmark! 

First a quick little sidenote: About a week ago I messages all the paterons with missing shipping addresses (as a part of the Special Offer in October). Since then my inbox has been blowing up. I will get through all the messages but it'll take a bit of time :) 

Back to this weekend: Wednesday it was time for me to leave LA and go back to Denmark. As of writing this, there are only 31 days till I fly out to be with Ava for Christmas so I'll be back soon :) I landed in Denmark Thursday evening and have been battling my arch nemesis since then - Mr. Jetlag ;) Usually it takes me about a week to get fully back to normal.

Despite the best efforts of Mr. Jetlag, I was still able to get some work done aboard Athena this weekend.  In a couple of days, the engine compartment should be painted. As in I'll be ready to move the diesel tank in there next weekend and then a few weeks later the engine - that is a big milestone! I'm very excited! 

On a different side note: Ava and I are working on setting up the online shop. It should be online in a couple of weeks. While in LA we found the t-shirt place we want to work with and also decided on a super spiffy nice quality t-shirt. There's, of course, going to be a discount/cupon codes for patreons! ;)

Great stuff. Had to pause the video and buy a pair of those Bluetooth headphones. Cannot wait to give them a try.
