14 weeks is a long time!

So, our union workers at our local facility went on strike on April 10th.  14 long weeks later, it ended - yay!  Driving through 2 picket lines twice a day was not fun (our plant is on the border of 2 towns, so they were able to form 2 picket lines)  Then we also had Police detail, security, temporary labor - what a mess!  Many of the office workers worked over time & helped out in the shop.  We managed.
So, the strike ended & the company put on a party for the office workers.  Whaling Museum - very cool place



 Cocktail hour

 Our president (on the right), and the president of our mother company (left) gave very nice speeches.
We are all very happy the strike is over!  Don't want to deal with that ever again!
