Manning the rail...
In the last posting I used a pix taken by my son-in-law on their tiger cruise on my son's ship, the Carrier A. Lincoln. It's a Navy thing to man the rail entering and leaving port. Note one of the sailors is a femele so it's now "people man the rail!"
Over the Memorial Week-end I got our crew to man my daughters new railing. It' at new their Mouse-shi-Tong ten year project rehag log home.
It's a little strange being there for their log home is four houses down from my grandpa's old summer home and a mile from my old friend Mike LaBaron's parents summer home.
Mike and I skied together, hunted together, went to college together and drank many a beer together. He had to go to Vietnam, I didn't, I miss the slug!
So this Memorial Day like in the past a spend a moment at his grave and share a beer with him. I manned the rail in my own way.

You had to have had "out" side help!
It is customary to initiate a deck with beer pong and other up north games. When does the party start?
!. What is Mouse-shi-Tong?
2. No parties yet, says the cabin owner, me.
Interior decorating suggestion: Have the party before you move your stuff in, before the floor is nailed down and the walls painted. Then you won't worry about those rowdy lake lovers! And anyone who is there the morning after gets a free pass to help work on your cabin. Simple.
Mouse-shi-tong was the the chief hon-cho of China and set goals to get China out of the "RED" and into the black. It did woprk until Marco- WalMart road into town with thousand of Purchase Orders for lead painted toys.
Whew---thanks for the clarification on Mouse-shi-tong and Marco Walmart.
