Oil Can Henry

My grandpa Henry would have loved this place.  Each time we have driven by Oil Can Henry's, I think of him.
He had a workshop connected to the garage at his place in the country just outside of Brokaw, Wisconsin. 

Grandpa could fix anything.  His workshop smelled of grease, paint, tools, and wood.  Grandpa built a sled for his tractor to haul grandkids on trails through the woods - a highlight of our visits. Well, that and grandma would always have great sugary cereals and milk in 1/2 gallon sized containers so kids could pour them without too much worry of spilling.
