GULLIBLE SISTERS
A lot of stories come to mind, but some could not be shared on a family site...
Several years ago at Keuka Lake, my sister Ginny O'Connell & her husband Terry were visiting & as usual I had a project for Jack & Terry which involved putting a light over the upstairs barn door.
However, Jack & Terry wanted to watch a ball game on TV, so they devised a ficticious errand for Ginny & me. They said they couldn't complete the job without a "left-handed swivel hook." We went to the local hardware store & innocently asked for one, only to be told they didn't have one. We then continued on to Penn Yan before we came home to find the 2 guys lounging in front of the TV drinking "brewskies." They just about fell on the floor laughing about our "quest."
