Good morning!....hum... potato problems heh?...I usually buy my mine by the 50 pound sacks just at the end of summer.....and then storre them in my garage over winter. With so many holiday's they make plenty of mashed potatoes to feed everyone.

So Diana got an visit from "Peppy Le Pew"...we had some racoons visit us one time...the damage they did...they got into my fish pond and had an about $100 worth of fish dinner. An mother and her baby. Haven't put any fish out there since then.

We picked blueberries last night so am thinking I should go do something with them today.  Sandy (town) started thier Mountain Days festival..with an parade last night.  Set up an small carnival and beer garden. Probably one of the better things to go look over is the motorcycle rally stops and pays an visit. Some of those bikes are awesome to see.

I now have been in three houses that are laid out the same, and all three of the houses have the furniture in the same place with an wood stove in the middle of the room and it just tears the whole livingroom theme to smitherings in ways. To begin with the houses were to small for the people living in them. But they are really an case for "thinking out  of the box" also. I think I would build  in half the garage into an new family room and put the TV and sofa's out there and use the existing one for half an office and half an dinning room with the wood stove in the center. Then put up an small bar adjoing the kitchen area also. All three houses also had an down sloping driveway...even in dry weather it was hard for me to manuve.I don' tthink the houseing contractors were thinking very good when they built them in ways.But at any rate...I'm off and about and no news of the baby as yet for William and Kate.

Wecome back James,,good to see you again. Neighobr is doing an olddie...painting the trim on her house to make it look like she painted the whole thing...in orange of all colors...better then an lot of colors I've seen out there.  Just re-did her driveway over also...kind of the brickish color..so it sould look well, most of the house is in yellow. Our house is yellow also, with brown trim though...and an bit of white also. So..how was  the trip?.... Borrow any fresh eggs from Ruth by any chance?..she's over there also.
