I learned about Boy Scouts while growing up by seeing them on TV shows or reading about them in books.

Just about my entire family recently went to Florida to get some fun in the sun and hang out with the grandkids. This means I had to “batch it” for two whole weeks.

Everyone likes wood. It’s beautiful to look at, feels good to the touch, is relatively affordable, and is easy to work with. It even smells good in many cases.

We haven’t checked the “Ask Cranky Frankie” mailbox in a while. Let’s see what the mailman has for us today.

Dear Cranky Frankie:

As one of the newest members of the Guilderland Fire District, I have a lot to learn. Yet even in the short couple of months I’ve been a volunteer firefighter, I’ve experienced so much.

As you can imagine, my first few months with the Guilderland Fire Department have been quite interesting and exciting.

I can still remember my last day of school in eighth grade at what is now known as Blessed Sacrament Academy, on Euclid Avenue in Cypress Hills, Brooklyn. This would have been in June 1973.

I’ve been doing a lot of things with all the free time I have now that I’m retired. Bought a couple of new guitars. Bought a Harley Davidson motorcycle. Founded the Guilderland Guitar Group.

Though I buy online like everyone else, I try to shop locally whenever I can. I like the idea of supporting my friends and neighbors. When they do good, their business does good.

So much going on in my new-found world of music. Let’s have an update.
