THE BLOCK...

A highly technical and sophisticated piece of engineering made up of cinder blocks, pallet, ski rope and fishing line.
In the news....
​Now that spring is here, Vermonters are encouraged to report ice-out dates on lakes and ponds

Larry and Tim made a hat
to protect the clock from snow coming off the nearby roof.  Hopefully, it will add a little protection from wind.
