I remember begging to eat there.

I have a cousin who is about 10 years younger than his siblings. One year, on the way back to Maine, he stopped with his parents at a roadside fruit/veg stand in New Hampshire. They all got out of the camper, thumped the melons, etc., and his parents loaded back in again. They didn't realize that Jon wasn't in the camper until they got to York, yelled to the back, "Hey, Jon! The Goldenrod burned down!" in the hope of tweaking him. It was only when they got no reaction to this that they realized they'd left him at the vegetable stand. The vegetable stand owners had waited an hour or two, then called the police, but seven-year old Jon was serene, annoucing, "They do stuff like this all the time, they'll be back."

Where did you camp when you were in the York/Ogunquit area?

Hmm, I can't remember for sure, but I think it was Burnette's.

Nora, all this is making me think of is Tom telling the story about the wedding you went to where he went to bed and you kept partying like a rock star and then came in and woke him up -- it was his imitation of intoxicated!you that just cracked me up.

You may or may not be surprised to hear that that story was told again this weekend...

I was pretty low key for this wedding though- I kept to beer (there were several yummy kinds to choose from) and started altenating with bottles of water pretty early on, and danced a lot of booze right out of me. Yay! I also blew off the afterparty, which had I gone, would have certainly resulted in a similar story for the ages...

The left side of my face has de-numb-ified enough so that I can cautiously eat soup without too much fear that I will obliviously chomp on the inside of my mouth. So, you know, yay.

I did make reservations for 4 nights camping in Key West for Thanksgiving. Campground with a marina for the boat. I don't feel like dealing with extended family so I'm camping for Thanksgiving this year. Sugarloaf Key if anyone wants to join me.

SO JEALOUS! GF and I really want to get back to the Keys...

Test~ma to DJ.

Eff Mondays.

Went to wedding, danced like a crazy thing to "Push It" and Pet Shop Boys' "Go West" and had a great time.

Glad to hear it was a fun time as anticipated.

Yesterday we went to the homebrew store and got fixins for a porter.

Hooray, beer!!!

Sorry to hear about the oral surgery, though.

Timelies, all!

Heh. My kids would have flipped their lids. That story sort of rings a bell. My memory is so sharp on some stuff, and practically missing in action where other stuff is concerned though, and I'm never sure when I've got the right stuff.

Hmm, I can't remember for sure, but I think it was Burnette's.

If Burnette's is where I think it is, it's about a block back from the beach.

Oh, poor baby. I'm glad it's denumbifying, though.

Jealous. I love the Keys. I used to go fishing there with daddy before I got older, and apparently less interesting than I was.

Hmm, this was a dumb post.

Hello! waves comprehensively at the Bitches. I'm back! I've been lurking assiduously, but work was eating from the top AND bottom.

Hey, Todd, good to see your font!

Todd!

I've been thinking of you lately as I have been working the bus system. Not loving it yet, as the schedule seems, shall we say, more of a notion than a guideline. Still, as winter approaches and I have an appointment that is more convenient on bus than rail, I'm on the corner thinking about you!
