"Back in the saddle"

After 6 weeks at home it has become time again for me to pack my bags and, using multiple means of conveyance, (car/ferry/limo/757/tiny plane & rental car), traverse the whole of this wonderful continent of ours, (sea to shining sea).

I type from Connecticut, having already made my pilgrimage to the local McQuades' Market for some dinner, (their prepared squash is delightful, a "must have" everytime I am here). McQuade's, being an Irish enterprise, has wonderful soda bread, alas, it is to far beyond St. Patrick's day for me to score any of that :( But the squash comforts me in my loss.

My venue for church tomorrow will be Montauk Baptist Church in New London. I am going to a Baptist Church?! Yep, this is where the Tyler's attended when they lived here some time ago. I called their local friends tonight, (who still attend) and have schedule and directions in hand. Apparently Sunday School will be on Nahum.

Everywhere I go, when people hear that I am from the Seattle WA area, they say, "Hmmm rains a lot out there don't it?" Drives me nuts, I could almost skip the obligatory shower tonight due to the multiple drenchings I have received here in Mystic in just the past few hours, (layers: that's the secret, slows the "wooder" down). I caught myself wanting to run to my car or find an umbrella or raincoat more than once. Such a heavy rain. In Seattle "rain" I breathe in the mist and revel in the moisture droplets that swirl around me as I walk, (slowly) to my car after a long days work. I find that refreshing. But this? Not a chance... here I drown, the sidewalks become tributary streams that feed the river that covers the parking lot and races towards Grand Storm Drain Falls.

Having O.D.'d on home improvement/kitchen makeover mags I chose to make an issue of Backpacker and the Outside buyers guide my flight companions today. A satisfying change!


Goodnight to anyone who finds that I have actualy updated this blog!

With sore muscles, (and hacked feet), from my short stint at NHL's Friday Night At Poulsbo I will sign off.

Hey Adam! Some day our paths will cross again long enough for us to get in that breakfast and chat. Despite your liking for squash, your friendship is held in high esteem:)

Growing up, we went to several Baptist churches... Some good theology and people for the most part! Of course I'm a full blooded TULIP totin' Calvinist Presbyterian now:) I hope you had a great Sabbath of rest and regeneration. And Mrs. H, the choir really sounded beautiful, it made me so sad to not be a part of it. Thank you all! Maybe someday I shall return...
Don't drown out there in the CT puddles Adam, talk to you soon!
