Well, it's not that bad ... I don't mean dead, just my project.
The good news is that my wife and I are proud parents again, we have a nine month old son. He's really beautiful/healthy and we're very happy he's joined our family!
The bad news, and I never thought this would happen to me, is that I can't see a way to afford the time, energy and money to complete my RV-7A slider kit. Furthermore, I'm accepting that the cost of flying is beyond my means if I ever want to retire.
I will miss the commaraderie of other builders, the smell of Oshkosh and Sun 'n Fun, and dream of flying wherever in a RV built with my own hands. This is one of the most difficult decisions I've made in my life. Flying has been in my blood since I was eleven (I just passed the 50 milemarker).
After I inventory my Van's purchases, some extras, and the Avery tools, I'll post an offer to sell in the classifieds. This is a heads-up if you know anyone who's interested. See the project at: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/jgburns/RV-7A_main.html
