lightnin’ strikes twice!
valentine’s day 2007. i spent my day at the restaurant, checking in on a cooler, cleaning out the silver boy (shed), re-organizing the silver boy (now that’s love), putting in a new booth at LSE, listening to some live music, and eating a pesto pizza with the in-laws, and my wife and kids… the place was humming along nicely all day, and me and the family even ate lunch together at Sonny Tillman’s place, Caroline and I had on matching “Satchel’s is for Lovers” t-shirts, and our kids had on matching red shirts with hearts sewn on by their very own minko (grandmother). we sat there all in our bright red and we sorta stood out, like we were the only ones celebrating Valentine’s Day… my son figured it was a holiday and he didn’t have to go to school. my wife decided to make valentines’ with the kids and deliver them to people we love… it just makes me sick with the sweetness of it all…
silas also came up with several new t-shirt ideas tonight on the way home from dinner. working with the satchel’s is for lovers theme, he claimed “satchels is for pirates” and told me to draw a pirate ship on the back… “satchel’s is for rednecks” in which i decided i should draw myself on the back, with my handlebar moustache and nascar hat, but C said it should say “satchel IS a redneck”… he came up with “satchel’s is for acrobats” and finally he says, “now this is a crack up, this one… Satchel’s is for customers…
and the photo above is a poster that john and i are working on… it’s going to be a full color poster now keep in mind… the jamaican flag is a nice touch i think. the photos in sepia tone, very cool. still lots to do there but a sneak peek for people in the know you know.
jah live.
