Saturday afternoon – Waterville

Sleepy Saturday afternoon.. I just woke up from a couple of hour nap. This morning Diane and I drove up to Waterville, VT.. about an hour north of here to visit our freinds Marci. Matt and Lili and help them get their garden in. Marci is our wonderful Reiki and massage juju sorceress. It was a beautiful drive up. Waterville is a cute little town up near Johnson. Blevedere (the nations biggest asbestos mine .. eeeek !) and Morrisville.   Marci and Matt bought the place about 2 years ago.. and this is my first time seeing it. It’s a cute 1890’s town builidng that’s been a pig farm , a five and dime..and now a family home. Its been really nicely redone to make it bright and cozy..

Matt and Marci’s house is in the center of town. Waterville is pretty

tinly. Two chiurches.. .. one on either side of their house , a green

and and a country store.

Diane got right to work helping Marci get in onions, tomatoes, flowers, cukes, squash, etc..

My job was to help Matt straighten out the fencing.. which was fun and easy. It was fun workign with Matt.   I’d never met him face to face before.. so it was a good way to get to know him.. If ‘good fences make good neighers.’ as Frost says.. then sagging fences make new freinds..

My second job was to take over the tilling from Marci.. They’re putting in a new pumpkin patch.. so I spent a pleasant hour yankign around their tiller. I love that kind of work.. dirty, noisey and mindless.. It felt great..

We got home around 2:30 and I fell immediately asleep.. Driving always does that to me.. Diane woke me at 4;30 to get ready for Beth and Scott’s wedding tonight. If she hadn’t I’d probably have slept on through the night !

OK.. we’re off to the wedding.. It’s outside at Mills River park.. should be nice more about that tomorrow.   TTYL folks.. Nite Sam
