The Office DUMMY

Our office lobby has a beautiful cherry wood full-wall length & height custom-built specialty-lit diplay of the products made at our various manufacturing facilities. I know it doesn't look impressive -- because I had to crop and photoshop all of the cool stuff out (something about import/export controls and a picture on the internet is big trouble with the Feds).

Common visitor comments include: You sure have a lot of bullets or There's no shortage of ammo in these parts or What's this - explosive powder? And, after taking a deep breath, our receptionist patiently explains that we only display the empty packaging.

A few weeks ago we received a huge delivery box and were surprised to find THIS inside. What a nice addition to our display!

You know when you move a chair, and then bump into it for a couple of days – you eventually become accustomed to it, right? NOT THIS GUY. There is no getting used to a 6’2” mannequin fully dressed in military clothing & equipment -- complete with facial hair and striking eyes -- and weapons! He startles the daylights out of me time after time! It’s been several weeks and I still find myself preparing to go around the corner I know he’s there . . . I know he’s there . . . I know he’s there.

It’s not just me. Daily eruptions include --
Eeesh! . . . I can’t get used to that DUMMY!
Ohh! What the ? . . . DUMMY!
Aghhh! Get that DUMMY out of here!
Stupid . . . DUMMY!

Biking the Rail Trail

J. pedaled 2-1/2 miles on Park City's Historic Rail Trail! . . . thanks to a slight down-hill grade and strong uncles willing to carry him on the uphill return! This ride came complete with playgrounds, two beaver ponds, and even a moose!


What Monstrous Feet You Have!

"Can I get in my pajamas now, pleeeease?"
