[SEL] Blacksmith building done....

[Tommy Berry]

While Devin is hammering his little heart out Curt are reclining in the
dark with an adult beverage, up to "NO Good". As long as they can hear
the anvil ring They know where Devin is and will not be disturbed! List

Yup Arnie, those are the yellow dogs. Missy and I are in the habit of 
sitting in the driveway in the evenings after work and I having a beer 
and Missy a mixed drink of some kind. The plan was to have the yellow 
dog beside us, filled with teeky (sp?) oil that keeps the biting bugs 
away. But ever since the blacksmith building went up, Devin borrowed the

yellow dog for lighting in his building. I offered to put up a lightbulb

in there for him, to which he replied in a very affirmative way, "I 
ain't havin' no stickin' 'lectricity in a blacksmith building, the 
yellow dog will do". What's a father to do, when a hip young lad 
squarely rejects modern technology in his blacksmith building? .....I 
bot him another bottle of teky oil.

As to the noise, the neighbors are pretty far away as the lots are 
large. In addition to the nostalgia of the ringing anvil is the ever 
present smell of burning coal in the neighborhood. Now picture this.....

Missy and I enjoying our evening drink (minus the yellow dog), with the 
sweet pleasant aroma of burning coal in the air, the ringing of the 
anvil, while we sit and watch Devin entertain us in the distance. Ahh 
life is good!
