We made an unplanned trip to Ulgedook today, to deliver our new-to-us table... a huge, oak conference table measuring 9'x6' in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid (a what?!?!?!?). This treasure was found at Habitat for Humanity's Restore (a retail outlet of quality used and surplus building materials), located in Burnside. At several hundred pounds, the table took four men to load onto the truck, and only Susan and I were available to unload it at Ulgedook.
After unloading and stowing the table in the back of the church, it was already dark and time to leave. Susan closed up and locked the door, but got the skeleton key stuck in the lock. Much fiddling and wiggling of the key failed to release the key from it's clutches, and resulted in the key breaking and leaving the bit in the lock. With that, we locked the deadbolt, and left the locksmithing for another day.

What an amazing 'find.' No more "meetings' around that table, but I can envision many evenings of Pictionary and laughter. Maybe we'll even be kind enough to let the guys win ;-)

Well, it was a church so we do have to be charitable. I guess they could win one game. :)
