Friday's Dispatch



  • Seeing a bullfight is one of the few things that I've wanted to do all my life that I will simply not die without doing. Didn't they show them on Wide World of Sports? 
  • Yesterday Something About Mary was mentioned at work. This morning it was the first thing I came to when I looked at the television.
  • I'm growing a beard.
  • Somewhere along the line I must have eaten a Dunkin Donut but I have no recall of doing so.
  • Wait, that's not true. My brother in law brought some home when I was a little kid and staying with he and my sister.
  • Keurig coffee makers are pretty great but if you'd told me the idea before I used one I think it would have sounded very Rube Goldberg-ish.
  • I'm going to Turner Falls this weekend with Zac and somebody who has never been there.
  • The Beemer has been in the shop nearly two weeks. When I rented her stand-in I instructed the girl to give me the cheapest car they had. She took me seriously. I miss the Beemer.
  • I'll be seeing these guys December 14.

I'm thinkin' that picture was from the poster for The Importance of Bein' Scared Stupid - or am I gettin' my movies mixed up? ;-)

I hope you get out of Turner Falls before the cold front hits.

Did you show Zac the entrance to the cave - not the big open one next to the Falls, but the small one down near the SE property fenceline?

I have a former Scouting buddy who actually spelunked that one back in his college days.

Don- I don't know. I only accidentally came cross the pic and thought it was funny. I think you'd mentioned that before(and I'm glad you did)I've wondered about other larger caves on the park property. We've only been to the 3 promoted on the signage etc. and I'll look on a map to orient myself to the ones we know about. Zac went into 2 near Wagon Wheel cave that were too little for me to enter.

Hey R- We didn't get out before it hit but it wasn't as brutal as expected.
