This is what needs to happen, but then again I doubt if it will as the way the Far Right thinks is just what  makes them Sooo Special in their own minds.    

LONG OVERDUE

Well it’s been a while, guess I’ll start with a month ago.

The Mrs. And I flew back East to visit some kin.

We flew into upstate NY to see my 93 year young Aunt. She is the last blood kin I have left from my Parents generation.

She is doin great. Made us grilled cheese and soup for lunch both days we were there.
Cooked a big supper one day and took us out the other night. She even had us go along to her Thursday morning Breakfast Club at the local greasy spoon.

I had never been there before. I think it was 1957 when they moved to this house.

Then we drove a rental car to the southern point of Maine. The Mrs has a sister, niece, and families there. They all live in the country in the Trees. I had never seen so many Trees, from upstate NY we drove due East for 400 miles and it was Trees the whole way. We were just a little early to see the leaves as they were just barely starting to turn.

I’d never been to the Atlantic Ocean , my first time WOO HOO !

We rode Amtrak to Boston one day and took a Tour Bus excursion. I'm not a history, or big city person.

Had a seafood feast put on by the In-laws

Shrimp on the Barbe, Steamers, Corn on the cobb, and Lobtsa. The shrimp was my favorite.

Anyway back home safe and sound.

SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS YEARS AGO !

ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES

Oh yeah that was a Movie that S1 loved as a youngin.

It's hitting home this year.

The Mrs is overwhelmed with everything coming out of the Gardens this year!




We netted the grapes as last year the birds got every concord the minute it started to change colors.
They never touched the green grapes, Birds must not see the color Green as being food.

Anyway the first batch of juice came out so SWEET and without adding any sugar, WE're not sharing with anyone !

BULLWINKLE

This week while doing some work on a cabin for a client Bullwinkle came by for a visit.

The radio was blareing a station of Pop music and he didn't seem to be bothered by the noise I was making, he probably couldn't even hear me because of it.





He sat down just a few feet away under a tree and chewed his cud all morning.

After lunch I was tired of the station and tuned in a Country one for the afternoon.
This didn't set well with Bullwinkle as he got up and left, but before he did, he gave this face to show me what he thinks of Country Music.

MITT do you really need My help?

So last evening I got a call, it was from a Republican Party fund raiser.  He said that Mit needed My Money to help in 3 Swing States, all they wanted from me was $3 a day for the 90 days till the election.  That would guarantee his success in these Swing States, What the What!  They ought to do their homework first; We’re the 99%ers just barely keeping things together since Wall Street stole all our money and mortgages.  Why don’t they just hit up the 1%ers, they’ve most of the money anyway.  Just think how much time they would save making calls!

"SOILED DOVES"

So the Mrs went to Idaho to visit her sister this weekend.
They get along pretty well, can really tear up the garage sale and thrift store scene !
The SIL did "Rendezvous" for many years and has carried it to the point of yard decor.

There is an Outside bedroom and bath.

The Pioneers would be Proud !

GOOD SAINTS THEY AINT !
