Ok, Ok - I get it - I haven't posted any Lucas pics lately.  Jeeezzz.  How about giving a busy guy a break?

Lucas and his Amish friend boy in Lancaster PA.

I've been dying since last winter till the time came to break out this winter's cap.

Eating some bread and saltines after some projectile vomiting.  Thing is, this meal is what he always eats, it's not some special 'upset stomach' meal.  I always say if he ever goes to prison he won't have a big dietary adjustment - he loves his plain bread and water.  Phoenixville PA.

It's a big milestone when these kids start dressing themselves.  it's so unexpected, and then like most growing up milestones, soon forgotten as it is taken for granted.

Lancaster PA - one of the finest places around, and where I was born and bred (and where I starred on the football and baseball field, which were surrounded by farms, breying cows, and the stink of manure).

So Thursday morning Lancaster, Thursday night Phoenixville, Saturday Bloomsburg, Sunday Eldred, then Monday up to Saugerties to move my upstate satellite apt from the cool town of Saugerties to the Cool town of New Paltz.

Goodbye Saugerties Apartment.

Hello New Paltz apt.

New wood stove at my home in Eldred NY.

The excavators getting ready to hit it hard this morning after we laid out Barn 9, in Olivebridge NY.

And our favorite cow next door.

And an update money shot of Barn 7.

30 yrs from now, people will be asking where you were during the Auburn (#4) and Alabama (#1) game of 2013.

I was sitting with my nephew in a medium-sized family restaurant with busy bar named The Scoreboard, in Bloomsburg in the middle of Pennsylvania (yes, PA still exists even though they have fracking) watching the most roller coaster, up and down, bizarre exciting endings  of a football game. Period.

I'm not even a huge football fan but was hanging with the 17 yr old, and rarely watch a game through to the end, regardless of how tight the score.  But this jaw-dropped and stunned wide eyed crowds - both for and against - motionless they stood as grasped for the right way to feel.

It'll be like when Kennedy was shot and everyone remembers where they were.  It was that type of game.

This has always been a fun and popular 2 bedroom, 1350 sq ft Cottage.  

Use it if you got it - so we found these stones and we build a retaining wall and some steps.  Free of course, at least to the clients.

Our hand-hewn, locally harvested, fast growth timber custom staircase (have I missed any trigger words, all you brooklynites?)  Great stairs could lead to home-brew craft brewery set up or jam making facility.

Getting the kitchen set…  That time of year where we need some help with the heat.

And even another carpenter sneakin' around.
