I’m sipping my coffee right now and thinking about today. I see from my window this morning a nice Blue sky. Just a perfect morning that is already pushing a refreshing 65 degree air through the screen windows. After the heat and humidity that we all experienced yesterday, followed by the storms that came through parts of the area last night, what a relief today should be. A little later this morning, I am looking forward to the old Sunday breakfast routine now that the summer is over. There’s the apple wood smoked bacon in the fridge that needs to hit the frying pan. It will be accompanied with sautéed mushrooms in a sharp Vermont Cheddar Cheese Omelet, lightly dusted with fresh ground black pepper. This type of breakfast is my Sunday routine that is enjoyed only during the fall and winter. With Sunday Football also starting later today, the club will get back into the swing of things with weekly football pools and a tailgate party. The tailgate grill will be setup outside the entrance door. Today’s opener will feature Burgers, Hot Dogs and Corn on the Cob from the grill. Inside the game will be on and Cold ones available for desert. It’s good to have a regular place to go watch the game if you decide to go out on game day. Today, my living room will be spared. I have tomorrow off, so another three day weekend is part of the plan. We all know that the Patriots roster this year looks very good and the team should have a legitimate shot of going deep into the winter still playing football. Pats fans also know that the haters will get their voices going by mid season and the BS will again begin to spew out of their mouths. The truth is, they hate our team because they are a winning organization. Yes, Life has again begun to normalize with the coming of a new season, and I can forget about this years Red Sox disaster. The last of the Supermoons will shine brightly in the sky for the next couple of nights. The September moon is also called the Harvest moon.

In my humble opinion, this is “The Who’s” best song ever. The Band will also start the 50th anniversary tour later this year in the fall. Enjoy, and a little head bopping is ok. Once you realize that the road is the goal and that you are always on the road, not to reach a goal, but to enjoy its beauty and its wisdom, life ceases to be a task and becomes natural and simple, in itself an ecstasy. Nisargadatta Maharaj Just a few pictures from the road last weekendSorry for the delay on posting, but this last road trip was a non stop adventure. Helene and I took off to the coast of southern Maine with friends. It was a great weekend for food, drink and weather. Some of the Highlights of the trip for me was a drive up to Kennebunkport. Included in that trip was lunch and a couple of cold ones at Federal Jacks, home of Shipyard Beer. We enjoyed a beautiful day lust sitting there overlooking the harbor There was also a trip to The Beach Plum Lobster Farm in Ogunquit Me. It came highly recommended by both Bob and Karen who have raved about the food. The food was just as they had described it fantastic. I have found my new go-to stop for fresh Steamers and Lobsters in that area. There was a bunch of miles driven during this fast paced getaway, the only beach time that I saw was a few minutes with my toes in the water, but t did not see that as a big problem. I have a history of turning into a lobster when I spend to much time out in the direct sun. We was also made trips to York Me, Cape Neddick, Kittery Port and Portsmouth NH. We saw a lot, and came back with a smile and some good memories. Don't blink, because the leaves are starting to change into their fall colors, in four more weeks we should have peak colors showing off in Northern New England. I hope there are a few good pictures that were taken on the trip. I will find out tonight when I get back home from work, the road is calling again. |
