"I don't think we do get smarter as we get older, I just think we run out of stupid things to do." ― Yogi Bear* [View all]

Yogi aside, please meet Fred Bear. Fred became friends with my wife Laurie on a Catholic Cursillo retreat years ago and they've been together ever since.

Long before she and I knew of each other's existence.

Fred has picked a cool spot to while away these summer days. We purchased this portable AC one year ago. Growing up amidst Connecticut humidty my dad's AC
was a welcome respite. Laurie and I are grateful for ours.


We hope you are coping well enough with conditions, wherever you are.

*If the title of this post was misleading I regret any misunderstanding. It's just that
our Fred has no sense of humor. And Yogi does.
