   Ron,

   I'd need to find a new stool, one with naugahyde?  And that router is way too new.

   Will,

   Anniversary is May 26th. - dinner is indeed near.

   OK, mebbe a bit slow but I teel ye what.  You take a ride out my way and spend a day with me.  Only have 2 horses, 3 dogs, 6 chickens and Fuzzball the cat.  Then there's getting ready for a new kitchen, finishing doo daas on the stairs, helping a friend get a 'puter for his business, building a router table, installing the lift, working on the Queen. 

   Oh yeah, it's getting warmer so don't have the pellet stove to deal with so spring is here!  Our first robin tol me so.

   Will,

   Another diversion has happened.  While cleaning out the woodshed, not to be confused with the woodshop, I happened to open the door to a storage area under the stairs that go up to the woodshop.

   To the right of the door, just beyond the post is a 2 holer fully functional but hasn't been used in years.

   It was crammed with really old wooden storm windows, the ones with the hooks on the top and clamps on the sides.  We have special days at the transfer station when you can hoe out the house as I call it.  A day when you can through out just about anything, non toxic that is.

   Buried in the bottom of the storage closet were these:

   I'm wondering if I should use the vintage Craftsman router in the right foreground.  Better check with Ron on that methinks.  :-)

   There are two handheld planers in there, one with a spiral cutterhead.  Have no idea how old these tools are.  The box in the background contains a Millers Falls sawzall.

   Regards,

   Bob,

   That WillG is prodding you with his Protestant work ethic.  This is a mode only fit for wage slaves and Midasic capitalists.  I suggest you load fuzzball upon the lap, grasp at a Fine Book and retire to the sofa for some simple pleasures (not that kind of simple pleasure).

   WillG meanwhile will be whizzing about like a self-whipped top, which is what makes him so dang dizzy.

   Striving - its probably a sin.
