You ask, 'Where have you been?' and 'Why aren't you keeping your blog updated?'
Because of The 123. We are very close to opening and I am busy. Happily busy, but very busy.

It's a Sign

Lawn Mower Parts for Breakfast

The lawnmower was broken. I knew it was broken, but I hadn't yet taken the time to find the replacement pieces.
Meanwhile, the grass quietly, slowly grew unruly.

PC politely fed me a reminder on a paper plate:


Mmmm....crunchy.

Bear Warning

After being enthralled with 'Moose Crossing' signs while in New Hampshire, I can especially appreciate this Warning sign.
I would be happy to give credit to whoever is responsible for this sign, but I don't know who that would be. PC sent it to me, but it's likely it was forwarded to him, too.
Whoever you are, thank you for the laugh; it's too good not to share.

Weird Load

Basketball, anyone?


Yet another weird load.

I just got back from a fun -and much needed- family vacation. While I was tempted not to go on vacation at all -I've got too much work to do- PC wouldn't let me get away with it. So I went, I had a good time, and, yes, PC, you were right.
