Our local hardware store, Casa Rubber, is a 5 minute bike ride away. It’s certainly not a Home Depot, but has about everything you can need. The folks there are friendly and pretty helpful. Ed has a small language barrier there, as most of the employees do not speak English. So, before he goes, Ed looks up Spanish words in the dictionary and writes them next to the items on his list. He also usually brings the worn out or item that needs replaced. Helps a lot. Well, he’s been going there a bunch these past few days- getting some electrical stuff so he can put up a motion sensor light as well as a couple of outdoor spotlights and today, we needed a replacement for the on/off float in the roof mounted water storage tank. On his visit yesterday, as it’s close to Christmas, they gave him a 2009 calendar. Today, they gave him a Casa Rubber T shirt. As you can see, it has a pretty design on the back and an emblem on the front. For years, our family has made fun of Ed’s T shirts all having spots on the front and Ed has claimed that the shirts he buys come with spots. Well, after admiring the back of the Casa Rubber shirt, he looked at the front. Lo and behold, there’s a spot on it! Fits right in with his wardrobe!
Here is the gift wrapping.
Ed will wear this T shirt with pride!
Viva la isla!

And we doubted Ed all of these years! I feel terrible. ;-)
That is hilarious!!! I still don't think ALL those other shirts had spots on them when you bought them, but now we'll have to be careful before making fun of the spots!
