Finally back at the Berea-Rose homestead. Alane got me from Akron airport (of all places) and I got to see the boys with their spanking new crew-cuts. They sure look cool.

From the car I called The Castle; RoseAnne had been cleaning up old papers and told me how she had just found some 40-year-old invoices/receipts related to -- my being born! Among the services rendered: circumcision, a bargain at $15.

I think that's what the boys' crew-cuts cost.

Coincidence? I think not.
