Flirtatious"You know you're the spittin' image of a girl I know named Millie. She works at a place out west called Kyle's. Looks just like this place."
Real Mood: Diametrically superimposed
Prediction: Tommorrow military men and women throughout the World are going to have to give up their Beef Burgunday MRE's and eat turkey. Oh, and this will not be the busiest travel day of the year. More on that later.
The bar you're looking at is touted as the oldest tavern in Portland, Maine. It's also a near exact replica of Kyle's in Colorado.
If you are having trouble getting around up here in New England it's a good idea to remember they build their roads following colonial cow paths. When you get in your car? Think Bovine!
I had duck salad tonight. I did NOT name the duck. Duck does not taste like chicken or turkey.
I think every major city in the nation will have a 10K race called the turkey trot tommorrow morning. Every television station in those major cities will cover theirs. So how do you top that? Portland, Maine has two. They had one last week, and they'll be doing it again tommorrow morning.
Back to the busiest travel day issue. It won't change anything for me to tell you this, but the day before Thanksgiving is never the busiest travel day. It's hard to nail down how the myth got started, but logic ought to smash the myth. People travel when the roads and rivers and oceans and skies are clear. The busiest travel day always hits during the summer. But the myth is locked in. Aliens studying us will be puzzled. They'll study our language and try to figure out why we say the busiest travel day is in November. Their dopler digital video will show that can't be the case.
Oh, Cheri, if you're checking in there are no longer any yarn shops in Yarmouth. Sorry! I'm going to ask Brenda if she needs any help with the pies. I can hear her filling up the dishwashser. I think I'm safe.
Best to you and yours on Thanksgiving.

mmmm....from Cheri .... thanks for checking out the yarn. Martha Hall sold the best wool for knitting and at great prices. The wool had nice lanolin that made my hands so soft while clicking those needles....
and.........hhhmmmm.... I don't know what diabolically superimposed means...or whatever you wrote....can't spell it either!!
Happy Thanksgiving from Ireland. We had a salmon dinner....the turkeys aren't available until closer to Christmas. They are still gobbling away at the farm at the end of the road. I haven't made friends with any of them..... gulp!!
