Sort of. It’s supposed to head up the Atlantic seaboard and reach Maryland Saturday a.m. The Delmarva Peninsula is more than 100 miles east of here. We’re supposed to be in the heavy rain and gusty winds band of weather. If this pattern holds, we’ll make out better than we did when Isabel came […]
Pyrate and I went to Denny’s for breakfast yesterday.
We haven’t done that for quite a while. Sometimes it’s nice to have somebody else cook for me! Imagine my surprise when I found out I’m now eligible for the Senior Menu! Most restaurants give you too much food (and too many calories- another reason to […]
We have a great little fair around here. I was out doing errands this morning and I realized I’d go right by the Agricultural Center. What makes it special is it’s put on by the 4-H and FFA, so it’s not a carnival. We have lots of those around here in the summertime too, but […]
One of the nice pleasures around here are some little lakes up in the mountains. True, they aren’t mountains in the Himalayan sense, but hey, Appalachians count too! A number of them have swimming beaches. We always enjoyed taking the tiny Duchess swimming. I think she’s part mermaid- that child loved the water! Anyhow, […]
Well, let me give a big Yahoo! to the Supreme Court for upholding the Constitution! Gun laws are stupid. The people who are going to break the law don’t worry about registering their guns, trust me. We don’t even own a gun, but know plenty of people who do. None of them are criminals. […]
but a very important rule around here- don’t get too friendly with the wildlife. For example, Spring is here and there are lots of cute bunnies. But I don’t spend too much time watching them because I’m just as likely to see a hawk swoop down and grab one for dinner! Saddest thing that’s happened […]
Tonight I heard the wild goose cry
Hangin’ north in the lonely sky
Tried to sleep, it warn’t no use
’cause I am a brother to the old wild goose
Oh, my heart knows what the wild goose knows
And I must go where the wild goose goes
Wild goose, brother goose, which is best?
A wanderin’ fool or a heart at […]
This morning Pyrate Mike and I went to the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival.
In Spring, there are lots of community fairs, steam shows, craft exhibits, etc. out our way. Most of them if there’s a few hundred people there on Saturday, it’s a good sized event. Today, was like no other event, sizewise, I’ve […]
Just for fun sometime, Google the phrase “What’s happened to Spring?” Lots of people are asking this question. Two weeks ago I was excited because Spring was just around the corner. Actually it was well above freezing, but still rainy and certainly too muddy to garden. I’m not kicking that much. Last summer’s drought was […]
Can Spring be far off?
If I ruled the world, ev’ry man would be as free as a bird,
Ev’ry voice would be a voice to be heard
Take my word we would treasure each day that occurred
My world would be a beautiful place
Where we would weave such wonderful dreams
My world would wear a smile on its […]
