Pints and Pool
It has been a while since I posted a photo from my cell. I am traveling for work and decided to put a pic up. Just a few pints and some pool at a local irish pub in Minneapolis.

I hope to have it delivered in about 10 days. I am not sure if I will set it up myself of pay someone to do it. It really can’t be that hard and I have found a few sites about how to felt the table.
