On VACATION. Items will not ship until Thursday, September 13. We’re going back to the beach cabins I last stayed in over 50 years ago during family vacations. I saw the moon landing with Neil Armstrong in those cabins.

Funny how you recall where you were and what you were doing during the Moon Landing.
We were vacationing in Hayward Wisconsin area and while we had rented a fishing cabin, it had no setup for a TV. We were all up at the Lodge (and I use the word Lodge Loosely as all it was is the main house with a bar in the basement.)
Anyway, we are all going to watch the Moon Landing on TV and we had a bad storm and the POWER went out. We had a little 5 inch battery operated TV in our cabin but no reception since no tall antenna. Well I ran down to the cabin and grabbed the small TV and brought it up to the Lodge and hooked up the roof antenna to the stick antenna and about 20 people were all crowded around this little tiny 5 inch B&W screen watching the first steps on the Moon.
Have a fun trip and make sure you go out at night and Howl at the Moon.
