Superbowl Sunday



Well, I must first congratulate the Steeler Fandum. A great game and a great story. Speaking of stories, I attended the Stories' Superbowl party and had a fabulous time. As usual they were a great host and wanted to thank them for opening up their home.

The pictures above are taken in the basement of 42 East Main. Pre Superbowl, my father and I were working on an Adirondack chair. On some of those long winter nights we venture down to the basement to put a couple of hours into the construction and restoration of Adirondack chairs for the cabin at Higley. Tonight, we completed the back leaving only the arms to finish. As you can see there are numerous other pieces that will be assembled into another chair. In one shot the Doctor is pictured with a standard battery drill in his hand. I also wanted to draw your attention to the picture absent of my father. If you look closely you will see a long, rectangular box partially obscured with a black, plastic bag. That box contains about 75 high explosive fireworks smuggled in from South Carolina. The person that spearheaded this operation will be kept in confidence for reasons of protection and safety. The fireworks will be stored at this location until the unveiling of their explosive power and awe inspiring color July 4th at the Higley Lake.

Those following my progress in Operation Summer Wedding, here are the stats for today--Sunday 2/5:

weight: 189lbs

pushups: 21

Subway Sandwiches: 0
