And I wasn't going to comment, though I was thinking of correcting herring
on his spelling of the placename. There's no 'h'. If he weren't such a
**** of a human being, I'd consider letting him park his trailer on our
spit of land next to the Shenandoah. It's got 'lectricity; a fire pit; a
masonry storage building (with a nice double bed, refrigerator and small
stove); an actual, union-built brick outdoor grill, and a canoe. The river
is up, sparkling and cold, and the smallies, I hear, are biting.

You'd be wasting your generosity on Johnny.
He has a history of slapping the hand that offers him a kindness.

Glad to hear your Mom is doing well, Don.

Harry, insert foreclosure joke here

You guys should really get together for a beer with Obama. I bet you
will find the others are really pretty nice guys.

BTW are you sure these are "union built" and not CCC camp built?
A lot of those Blue Ridge/Smoky mountain things are depression era
public works projects. That is particularly true if this is native
stone work. A ride down the Blue Ridge trail is a time capsule back to
the days when there were real masons, not just guys slapping block to
the line. (although that is a skill in itself if you can go fast with
a good result)

I've met herring. He's a racist asshole. His wife, though, was very nice.

I was referring to *our* union-built outdoor grill, not a CCC project
grill. It was built by a friend of mine, who happens to be an active
bricklayer who works only for contractors who are signatory to the union
contract. He uses our cabin and shed, and in addition to helping me
build the shed, built the outdoor grill for all of us one weekend last
year. It's just a simple little outdoor grill.

I've been trying to get him to build a brick outhouse (just for show -
we have plumbing now), but so far...no go, so to speak.

Oh...there are plenty of "real" masons around today.
