That big locksmith job at the lumber yard was BIGGER than we had anticipated.
In addition to the 9 lever sets that I already had keyed to a 4 level master system, there were 8 additional mortise rim sets, 3 gate padlocks to be rekeyed and security plates to install!
Did I mention that it turned into a
5 level master keying system that had to be adapted in the field?
Yeah. We got this!

"I'm cypherin' now, Uncle Jed!"
Office. Warehouse. Production. Maintenance. Master Key....
Oh, and maybe production's keys also have to open the warehouse?
And maintenance keys have to open production,
and the warehouse?
Figure all that in, OK?
Glad I only had one bottle of wine and got a good 3 hours sleep
that night!

{Non rhetorical statement, Philosophically.......}
(never did find that damned cork, either....)
Now, there will be no more locksmithing for a week or so.
We are on Vacation.
For me, that means yard work, buying textbooks, paying truck insurance.....
(You see that Joe's been camping with me before, right?

)
I hear the mountains calling....
To a spot I usually only camp at on Christmas.
If you listen,
You can hear the icy cold stream singing it's melodic,
never-ending song, luring you closer to Nature....
Nowhere but my beloved mountains of North Georgia!
Best,
Scott
14 years ago today, I'm having to plan a funeral....my Mom's....
Perhaps clues in photos?
You kids really need to check out my "Camping" thread....
And, I think she was..... My Mom!
Georgia, that I remember....Maybe?

Perhaps somewhere in the South Dakota Mountains?
Which I remember intimately....
Perhaps along a lonely stretch of Kansas highway beside a fence post?
Along Highway 35?
Yeah, I'm old and feeble of mind to do this.....but....
I'm putting several silver Certificates and high denomination Star notes in a PVC tube.
Oh! and coins, too.
How 'bout an error 1998 Lincoln "WAM?"
Yeah....And some other goodies....
Y'all payin' attention, here, right?!?
More later.....
