When the boys were growing up a favorite place for them to hang out was in Grampa Cliff's shop. Grampa had tools set aside for them to work with when they visited. He would be working on his upholstery projects and they would pound away on some kind of wood piece or just hang out and visit with him. It was a "guy" place, lots of tools, woodstove burning, beer drinking, jokes and a small TV for watching games. It was pretty much the norm when we stopped by....women in the house to visit, all the guys to the shop to hang out. So Dale was happy today when he introduced Lucas to his shop. Lucas stared at the flashing beer sign on the wall and liked the TV going with the Packers - Seahawks game blaring. I'm sure this will be the first of many grandkids to be introduced to Grampa Dale's shop. The place to hang out!
