I noticed the heater, it's a size bigger than I have for my 24x40 barn. It should heat your deer shack OK. What does a guy that never gets cold need a flame thrower like that for?

I got to see Steve in action yesterday. First he went into full salesman mode with the guy at the bait and tackle and got the OK for Jeri and OE's son Reiley to make sales calls. Then he laid a layer of sugar on the young lady running the register so thick that my teeth started hurting and I got a sugar buzz. Something about being the catch of a lifetime that had her swooning. In his words- he can be quite a charmer. Probably how he's hung on to Judy for all these years.

Should be a good time at the ice fishing gathering. Like Steve said, it's a pretty place. My sister owns a vacant lot on Holland Lake which is about 75 acres. Her property has a small hill just off the lake with a fire pit and electric on a pole that would work nicely for setting a warming tent for the kids and sissys and plugging in crock pots. I'll keep an eye on the ice and let everybody know when it's safe.

Time to get ready for work now, unless they make me take a vacation.
