Good evening Illinois, Jim, Sean, Ken, Pat, John, Ian, and Don!

53° and sunny today in the River City. One year ago today it was -6° here. I do believe this year is better than last.

Guess Sean is going to have to deal with house payments again?

Patty had a hen party going on upstairs. Good day to disappear.

Got all of the pieces cut for the top or lid. Will sand tomorrow.
