1992- Baby's Room


Another old newspaper article I came across was this one from October, 1992. The photo shows 3 year old Satchel sitting in a rocking chair in the nursery Kim and I had created. Satch's little sister, Riley, would be born two months after this photo appeared.___We had a dalmatian, Sam, at the time and went with that as the room's theme...thus all the spots, plus we created cartoon characters on foamcore, cut them out, painted'em and hung them on the walls. Wooden shelving units were made, not by me, to look like gym lockers. Oh, and there were glow-n-the-dark stars all over the ceiling. It was a lot of work....but very rewarding and so worth it!

Buck, you are such a publicity whore! Who would have ever thought that your college bathroom redecorating skills would have progressed into the rest of the home? BTW, sorry once again for all the wishful images of my alter ego that I left on your basement bathroom wall years ago. Friends shouldn't let other friends draw drunk.

Zeigh, that story of YOU decorating my college bathroom' deserves it's own post sometime. That was one of those great college memories. How come I like you so much but when I look back on it I can see how many times you got me in trouble? Ha! You're the best!

My man, the only difference between your kind of publicity and mine, is that all my efforts only made it as far as the police reports. You at least made the arts pages!

Dude, your whole life is an ARTS PAGE! Course, you and the cops are pretty good pals, too.
