Larry.......

Phone home

Hope everything is alright.


I got to thinking, with Larry visiting all these incredible shops and meeting these great people....it's gonna be a real downer for him to come home to a empty shop, painted in pinks and purples.....and hangin out with a framing carpenter.:rofl:

shop? heck it`s allready been converted to "quilting central" .....the beer cooler has been replaced by a coffee/tea/expresso machine, the tablesaw by a cookie oven, there`s carpet on the floor to make vaughn jealous....;)

Karl...where in the hades are you?


Larry will be on his way home. Hurry up and get here. Got to get that curly cherry outta here....quick!
 
A hard day at The Studio...

Well, Larry and I had a tough day. We worked on staining a board or two, we got a piece of veneer bookmatched and shoved in the bag. And then...we decided it was too much work so we...

grabbed a couple poles, a bucket o'worms...and we went fishin!

And we didn't have to go to far from the shop...

P1020142.jpg

Nice having fish that close. Too bad they were still on the spawn and weren't interested in our worms...

We'll post a shop pic or two in the morning.

And Karl....you better hurry up....

- Marty n Larry -
 
Looks to me like Larry's putting more effort into lightening your beer supply than fishing......:rolleyes:


Larry....I've got beer in Idaho!:D
 
ZZNORTBRP!!!!

Well, it's a good thing you yelled Steve. I been taking a, what I thought was a well deserved, nap.

They wouldn't let me on the Macinacky bridge. :( Says I was too slow and with the head wind I'd end up going no where, maybe even backward, so's I got me on a ferry boat. Now when I landed I thought it strange that there weren't no other vehicles there. :huh::dunno:

They weren't gonna let me off the boat, but I gunned it and next thing you know, I've outrunned them all. Even at 5 MPH. :thumb: Didn't hurt that I was throwin carrots and sugar cubes at my pursuers either, but however you can get away is good. :thumb:

Now here's where the problem comes in. See, I could swear, but I won't, I been by the same place at least three times. :dunno: I'm getting really low on gas,down to my last 5 gallon can and still keep going by the same tree [ I got smart and marked it after a couple of trips:doh:], but so far it seems I'm still going in circles.

I haven't given up though. I'm still lookin fer that fork in the road that will lead me to Delton. :thumb::D

Can't wait to see the quilt room. I do hope Randi did some of it in flourescent colors with black lights. And maybe a disco ball.

Did you get the cherry cut into 3' lengths so's it'll fit in the trailer? If it's longer and I have to put a red flag on the end it just seems to attract the police. Much like one of them red thingys does with a bull. Know what I mean?

Still tractorin, but seemingly not getting anywhere. :eek:

Hey Marty, maybe you could keep Larry there a couple more days. ;) Put a couple dead fish on his line so's he thinks he's catching something. ;):D You know, get a sea bass or something from the local fish market. Maybe a couple of shrimp or even a lobster tail or two. And of course a cooler stocked with libations. :thumb:

Man, I sure hope Larry remembered to put his Michigan hat on. Otherwise people gonna be sending him in the wrong direction. :eek:

He could end up in Ideeho. Is the potato crop ready for harvesting yet Ken? That could be a new experience for Larry. :D

Karl
 
Surely there has to be more woodworkers between here and Jawja that ole Larry can stop in for a visit.....it would give a little more time to get rid of the few remaining pieces of stuff that is cluttering up the quilt shop.
 
Well, we had a successful launch this morning. There's a hillbilly somewhere betwix Jawjah and his quiltin' shop.

Just prior to the launch sequence, we all headed out to the shop for the obligatory 'family visit' shot:

And of course, while I was getting the camera and tripod ready, Larry just couldn't resist playing around a little. He grabbed a chunk of my pen turning stock:

Well Karl,

Unless he changes once he gets north of the Mason-Dixon, he's wearing a hat Denise and I picked up for him:

We wanted to make sure he felt at home here in the south...:thumb:


Well, we sure enjoyed meeting and spending time with ole Larry. He's sure a great guy!

Hope he has a safe and uneventful trip back north. And hopefully the warm sunshine we canned for him lasts til he gets up there into the frozen north...:D

Well with gas prices hitting $3.78 here yesterday I hope "Bubba" has enough cash to make it home.

Hey Bubba, I recently had a tool/wood sale....I could loan you a few bucks from that sale so's you can make it back to Meecheegan.
 
Oh my goodness, Larry wearing a BUBBA hat. :thumb::D

Now there's any number of states he could end up in. Why even up here there's a BUBBA or two. :thumb:

I do hope Larry reset the TomTom or Garmin, or whatever he's using. :eek:

Just follow the north star Larry. When you run outta green you went to far.

Karl

Thunderstorms, hail the size of my thumb, raining like no tomorrow at this moment, thought Larry was passing by!!! Evidently based on the above post, it was due to the vacumn created by his reentry! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
