Hi John…

Not sure why we keep springing forward and falling back.  Maybe there is someone who just likes to tell everyone what to do.  Think about it.  Okay all you people of the US of A tomorrow your clocks will be changed.  Just do it.  That’s it.  I’m the boss.  I wonder even if you know what time it is right now.  Imagine that. 

Tonight no pictures.  I know it is fun to see them however it is a royal pain to put them in.

Morning was spent walking dogs with the Kenney’s.  I love those walks.  Just as we were walking up the field we noticed Julie had a deer leg in her mouth.  Now that would have been a good pictures if I was thinking.  This is the same deer leg they uncovered in the cold of winter.  I kicked it far over the cliff.  So here is Julie with the hoof swinging back and forth.  It was a funny sight.  Tim had to do quite a bit of coaxing to get her to drop it.

Talked with Max today.  Well I woke him at 1:30 (more like 12:30 if that guy didn’t tell us to change the clocks!).  He made homemade seiten last night.  Didn’t you tell me you made that once?  He said it was delicious.  I told him it sounded like the Red Bamboo restaurant.  He actually made some seiten chicken wings.  He then told me Mathtew L. is visiting him.  He has had a great weekend with him.  They figured it has been about 7 years since they hung out.  I guess Matt will go on to Law school or some poli sci branch.  He has always been a good debater…just for the sake of argument.  Max made sure he showed him a good time and introduced him to some wierd friends.  Pratt is a bit different than Penn State.  I’m glad they reconnected. 

Max said Abbott will show up around Wednesday.  Then he is heading with some friends to Liam’s house near the shore for his week off.  They may make it down to Cape May.  Reptar is fine and has to wear one of those Elizabethan collars.  He seems okay with it and is not going crazy.  Maddox the cat is hyper and cute.  No other people news with him

Your parents are heading to see Sis and Phil to celebrate Phil’s 80th birthday.  Happy Birthday Phil!  I swear if I looked as good as your Dad and Phil look when I get to 80 I am only going to eat chocolate cake, chicken wings and Pepsi for all my meals.  They are amazing men.  I guess they look like that because they don’t eat that stuff.  Hey, I said “chicken wings” twice in this letter.  Maybe I will make some veggie ones soon. 

I spent some time cleaning the yard.  Yes, we can see grass in many spots.  I did some yoga just for me in the barn.  Gabe had a good day at Bolton.  Kristin joined us for dinner.  I made potatoes and veggie hot dogs.  One of Gabe’s favorites.  Along with asparagas and strawberries (not together).  Quiet rest of the night.

For some reason Gabe was mumbliing Louie Armstong’s “It’s a wonderful world”.  I love that song…who doesn’t?  I played it on You Tube for them.  Then I saw Rod Stuart sung it.  They both said “who’s Rod Stuart?”.  Hmmm.  Oh well I guess that may not be necessary to know. 

Well I’m off to sleep.  love…diane
