57thahc Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 :DYes there is life in Hillsdale,thou the factories close,shops go empty,people leave and the Governor she says you ain't seen nothing yet!! We have a very good College here(Conservative-) My Daugther and her Husband are grads-He is a new Doctor?She is PR writer for Lansing hosp. Son is finishing college-long program 5yrs, not ten yrs like the old man!! I am Retired thru VA,Agent Orange stuff,still kicking and getting MAD at VA-slow and slower,My Wife is Art Tchr,soon to retire(I hope)37 yrs.Working on studio,many tools,machines,ideas and a general mess to arrange!! I hope to set PICS,but am hitech for dummies,Did I say I have 96 Hammers,low tech but effective. Yes my family makes fun of my hammers and others tools,to bad they will have to pile them on my funeral pyre,for my viking passage. Most of my projects are medium small,limited space and getting old! My brother-in-law does big stuff up at Mackinaw City-Levering,big barn full of good salvage steel,precsious tid bits and more messy than my place,his place is much bigger.Good foil when wife(his sister) gets on my case about how can I find anything,can't but your bro has worse prob.I came to this forum and found many things that interested me, so here I am,will lurk or listen,but I will put in my two cents,to help or disagree. Much good info already absorbed.Thanks for the forum.Dick Stack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
