Well I am joining the plumbing problems gang that seem to congregate here. Our septic has a either a blockage or a break, not sure which yet but I walked down yesterday to find the the basement full of #$% which stinks, literally! Actually, it wasnt too bad, mostly water so I cleaned it up with bleach but cant use our plumbing at all until the septic guy shows up today. Getting to know our neighbors very well!!!
Enjoy the sunshine folks...

Happy Birthday James Taylor!
I would sure love to see him again. A poem for James & a review of the last concert of his that I saw.
I feel rejuvenated & relaxed after an evening beyond fine,
Seeing James Taylor again was like sipping the finest wine,
Congenial & so polished, he puts the “gift” in gab,
An instant rescue remedy for one who’s feeling drab,
His contagious zest was at its usual best,
& he chatted & shared a few anecdotes in jest,
A great repertoire & what an exceptional band,
Take it from me, cause I saw it firsthand!
We went Up on the Roof & to Mexico,
Carolina in my Mind wasn’t too far to go,
Some Days You Gotta Dance to SteamRoller Blues,
Then head to Copperline; what a heavenly muse!
Cause a Walking Man will see Fire & Rain,
& Your Smiling Face will keep you grounded & sane,
Sweet Baby James may be over forty today,
But he reminded us of things that get closer Everyday
So you Shower the People you love, simplistic yet so effective,
& Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight may seem a tad introspective,
Everyone should try & see JT, he radiates a joy that is true,
& I thought I’d share these little thoughts cause you know…
How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You!!

That sucks Aloha, or should I say, stinks. With all the thawing & freezing this week, I'd expect you're not going to be the only one with problems. I hope he comes today, & the damage is minimal.
Congrats Jester. Nice to see you "in the PINK".
