New Shoes and sound system

Sean was in the process of installing a sound system for his truck. It is finished now and sounds really good.  It vibrates, but not too much.  He paid for it himself, one piece at a time when he could afford it.
 Sean wanted a pair of bowling shoes for his birthday.  We went to the bowling alley and a sports store and no one sold them.  We went online and voila!  They even say rental on them.  Dad said he should carry the receipt with him so that he has proof of purchase in case anyone thinks he stole them from a bowling alley.
It's amazing how many people notice his shoes.  I mean really!  His fellow coworkers noticed the minute Sean walked into Burger King and they were behind the counter.  A lot of people think they're cool but some people make rude comments.  The older people love them, especially the bowlers.  Once a trendsetter, always a trendsetter.

I always wanted bowling shoes too. Sounds like life is good in Florida. You asked about the baby's blessing gown, it is one that all of the grandchildren have worn to be blessed in. So pretty.

Hi Cyn. It looks and sounds like you guys are good buddies. I have always loved bowling shoes. That's cool that he wanted them. They look great. I love the picture of the woodpecker, because we have one that comes and pounds on my roof. I've gotten his picture before. I heard that the Marlers have been, or are coming, down there. Great!

John and I are leaving for St George Sunday for the week. I'm taking my sewing machine and my lastest quilt kit. I will also check out my fav antiue shops.

Hugs and Kisses
