I admit this has nothing to do with guitars. But it has everything to do with sharing fun times with friends (digitally speaking).

I finally managed to follow through on an old, and surprisingly difficult, project as a Christmas present to myself. It finally came yesterday, and I've had a mildy silly smile on my face ever since.

I couldn't believe it when Dad found this in the basement a couple of years back. It took some effort, but I finally manged to find someone to get it back in shape. I can't imagine how many hours of playing time this thing had in the 70's and early 80's, but every single one of them was a blast! We used this thing ALL THE TIME in Pittsburgh!

My kids are at the right age to put this ball back into service. I can't tell you how good it makes me feel to have it in playable condition again, especially since I thought it was lost long ago.
