Well it's finally starting to get nice out there. Perhaps Spring isn't so far from us now. It seems as though the Winter's grip is easing as I see the tennis players invading the courts across the street. It is a good sight, a welcome sight!
Anybody else venture out for Maine Maple Sunday this year? We went to Merrifield Farms. We stood in the breezy cold for 45 minutes to eat breakfast, and it was well worth it! I ate 3 pancakes, 2 sausages, a bowl of beans, and a bottle of water, not to mention the maple ice cream with syrup on top! then I stood by the fire, above which were 3 bubbling cauldrens of sap, next to which was a LIVE BAND!! Awesome time!! The kids got to on the tractors, and there was a full park for the kids to play in! They also enjoyed a wagon ride around the farm, pulled by a yolked team of oxen!! If you missed it this year, plan for next year!
Be Well Friends!

It's a strange planet
I was in the mall, I needed the bathroom. Since I was in Penny's, I went to where the bathrooms are, conveniently located on the second floor at the furthest reach of the store, behind the lingerie department! I couldn't help thinking about the trek someone in dire need would have to make! I can just picture the trail one may leave behind trying to locate the elusive door to that realm of comfort! And whose idea was it to put it behind the dainties? I got the evil eye from the old biddy who was standing sentry behind the counter. Did she think I was there to try something on? I also wonder who would buy anything with her on duty! Is some supermodel, because you'd have to be to wear some of these things, going to put her lace panties and supports on the counter to be scrutinized by Brazilla? I'm willing to bet sales are down when she's looming. I got to the bathroom, but still did not escape Brazilla's gaze as I departed, as if to demand to know if I was hygenic. I waited until I was at the edge of the department to turn around and yell, "Yes, I washed my hands!!" She smiled.

Heavy Times
Tomorrow will be a heavy day. Pray, if you do, for the Hogan family as they bury two of their daughters which were lost in a fire last Friday. I can't even begin to guess how they must be grieving. Some of us will serve as pall bearers, we are already solumn over the thought of small caskets.
On the upside of thigs, Spring is on the way. Don't forget to turn your clocks AHEAD 1 hour before bed on Saturday! You don't want to be late to church on Sunday!! It's warming up out there, I can see some good fog outside as I type away! I hope there is no more snow coming, but in this area that is uncertain! April snowstorms can happen!
Seven more weeks until Tina gets home!! Hoorah!! Time drags when she is not with me. Then, once she arrives, we have only 3 weeks until our trip to Ohio to see my brother, Mike, who can outdo me in any eating contest, and his wife, Julie, one of this planets most amazing cuisine artists, and our nephew Brandon, one great young man! I am really looking forward to this trip! I love the drive, 15 hours, with Tina. Tina likes the ride!
Until next time....

Back in the groove
I've been back a week now and life is back in the groove! I am looking forward to an acoustic jam this Friday night at the Cockpit cafe in the Sanford airport at 7:00pm! If you like good music, or you'd like to bring your instrument, see you there!! And bring the kiddies why dontcha! It's nice to have these little oasis of fun to interrupt the daily doldrums of life. Got a pizza in the oven, ready in 15 minutes! I have a boring and predictable life!
Had to go to Walmart the other day. I actually love going there because you never know what you're going to see! I was going around the corner in the dairy section and just about tripped over some woman squatting to look at the bottom rack of the day old bread and other bakery treats. I've seen some plumber's cracks in my day, but her entire butt was hanging out! I thought at first she was about to squeeze off a duty right there in the aisle! Yikes! Now, some guys wouldn't complain about such a sight, but if you'd seen her I'm sure you'd have agreed that burning out your retinas would have been preferable to taking another gaze! What are some people thinking???
Maybe I'll go back up to WalMart on Saturday!
