Hennings No More
Well, hate to be a jerk and dance on someones grave (and some may say that this victory dance may signal some sort of character flaw which I will heartily embrace in this instance), but nothing gives me an extra jolt of pleasure than seeing Henning's Local Restaurant sign disappear from the landscape after 2 years.

I've been at this business building thing for 12 years now, been screwed by a fair amount of people, but for some reasons Henning Nordanger's manipulation of my generosity and then the poaching of my #1 guy to help him at his new enterprise, really wedged deep in my crawl. I think the growth of Catskill Farms blinds people to the day to day effort it takes, and some folks think that to borrow a little here, and take a little there seems without harm to us as a company - but it is harmful, I have just learned to navigate each and every daily avalanche that comes our way.
Even with a lenient landlord and a full support of the cool crowd, he couldn't make a go of it.
Full circle baby, full circle. Moving on.
Nearly Summer

People using my son's red wagon to get ready for the party on Memorial Day.

Hauling a keg, really?

We had some mean grain punch, and warned kids away with this sign. But then my elderly neighbor started talking trash and politics after one drink so we warned off the elderly as well.

I had no idea how awesome a hammock can be. Whittle away hour after hour.

Damn goose family.

Party time. Like 15 kids running around somewhere lord of the flies like.

Note to self. 9th graders don't wash cars that good.


TriFecta - Clear to Close
Such a simple piece of paper to mark the completion of so much hard work.
4 closings in 3 weeks, and here are important pieces of gov't issued papers that are part of that all important, often illusive bank phrase - Clear To Close

My in-house architect, project manager navigated the inspections the other day, and I personally picked them up at the various hole in the wall building departments.
