I remember the incident!
That was back when the state surplus store was down near the GSA complex in Auburn.
I am so glad you received it in good order and delighted that your father is alive and kicking and hitting tennis balls!
FReepers stick together!

Yep, that was probably what eight or ten years ago? At the time it seemed cutting edge (to me at least) to coordinate something like that over the internet.
I remember you saying you used a cardboard box as an umbrella to keep the rain off when you picked it up.
Dad nails those tennis balls back at me probably thanks to that machine. Maybe one of these days I’ll beat him but not anytime soon...
