Coming on over with two six pack bottles of Dos Equis. One low carb Amber the other Lager. Amber is a little strange. The Amber has less carbonation than most beers and is classifed as a Lager, yet tasts like an Amber. We can compare.

(Hint-- After you count them and tell him, he's going to tell you that he didn't really count the rivets, he just wanted to see you do it.)

Wow. You must really melt snow and dry things out and bring out roaring sun wherever you go! Unless that's a Maine in another dimension.

How'd you get 148 rivits? I counted again and only came up with 113 rivits. Those things holding the grill do not look like rivits, so I did not count them. (Notice three are missing.)

Maybe 114. Looks like I missed one on the ladder brace under the door.

Wayne,

So you got your red and blue buddy to actually do a hands-on/toes-on count and you just sat back and counted the ' rivits'.

It's nice to have friends that will do the actual work.You had better keep him around.Who knows what rivets will need to be counted next by the rivit counter.
