Math teacher-turned-lawyer on one side, phone technician/semi-pro baseball player on the other. I have no farmers as far back as I can trace; just carpenters, blacksmiths, shopkeepers, boatbuilders.
Whether or not you’re running for Congress and trying to seem rugged (and you probably should run, because, look who’s out there) what did your grandpas do for a living?

The more I learn about this disaster the more apparent it becomes that my faith in boatbuilders to follow sound practice and good safety design is completely misplaced.

The family lore was always that we were a family of boatbuilders who immigrated. (The family boatworks in the US is famous to enthusiasts of vintage boats)
Then I discovered that the hometown in the old country was miles from the ocean. It was, however, famous for beer.
My theory? Barrel makers.

Yeah, why not? This spot is a twofer, turn around and you’d be looking at the back of Robert Dorris Boatbuilders, where the first Canal Boats were made and, later, the Motorboat Cruise vessels. The building in the background is still there.

Sitting drinking cider by the river waiting for son to join us for lunch. A jumper I donned at 9 degrees is a regret at 22 and rising but otherwise no complaints. Seems a world away from some sad news I learned this morning. Happy Easter to everyone who celebrates.
