When I was a kid, company was special, “COMPANY is coming, clean your room”.  We cleaned everything twice, better than usual.  It made company seem like inspectors.  We have company right now, GS1 is home.  I’m not sure he’s company, some of his items reside here when he doesn’t.  He’ll be here until December 17th, …

Wilmington, Ohio Bluegrass
