The old sheet metal ice chest that used to belong to Manuel in his drinking years....

He passed it on to Peter many years ago and it is still in full use.  We were surprised to see it again.

This is one of the ice chests that keeps the drinks really cold.  It was made by Manuel's sheet metal co-workers at Kelly AFB.
