Well it was only a 15 hour day today, I did not have to hold a steam hose to thaw out equipment. We wired it in place :-). I got to work just before 6 and was on the run till about 1pm getting stuff squared away. Considering how cold it was we did not have to many problems, thank goodness.

As one who has been thru several resturant remodels I have found that it is much easier to close down for a few days and get it all done than to try and work around the customers.

I know that you all don't have the luxury of taking a couple of days to put up all the displays and that you haven't been open long enough to have your business pattern down but you might consider taking a day to get the major parts done. AND NOT CHRISTMAS DAY, you need the break :-)

Good luck with the buildout, I hope it goes well.

An animated cartoon to help brighten your day.

Regards

The North Koreans are very skilled at softening up prisoners.

Yes The North Koreans are really good at that. I was stationed at Osan, and talking to some of the locals who were there when the NKs came through...well lets just say the stroies would gag a maggot.
The North Korean government...they are NOT nice people.

If they didn't they wouldn't be leftists.

Ah! But are they "authentic" caribou? Or are they caribou who have sold out to the evil rich white man?

Just thought I'd stop in and let you all know we are still kicking!

How's Sam taking it? Did he stuff a pillow down his pants to soften the blows?

Thanks alfa6. We just did some minor, easy assembly of some items leaving the large more difficult pieces for Christmas Day and the day after. We will rest or at least not pressure ourselves since it is Christmas after all. We still want to find a way to squeeze in a movie..we'll see.

A beautiful bird. They don't make it up here to Oregon. :-(

He's a flycatcher, I'm surprised they are at the feeder but it's a good thing! I'm so glad you are enjoying the feeders, it's a great way to relax.

I'm also glad you didn't get too cultured on your excursion. :-)

I made a small mistake, it should read " evil rich white repubican male." For as we all know that's all you find in the republican party.


And now to bed.

It was at the least the most fun part, other than any live fires we did. :-)

Thanks for the bio on Jim Bridger, Valin.

Hi Victoria.

Maybe because he's a NUT cracker?

That does look like me before I had my morning coffee. :-)
