Okay, time for something new. I fully recovered from my last blog...or was it something I drank? For those of you that I dialed while drinking, I am glad we are still friends...for those that did not get a drunken dial from me, I know we are still friends..unless you feel you missed out on something...If so, forward me a phone number and I will pencil you in for the next round of calls.

Springtime is unofficially here, at least the trees that hang over into my yard think it is and are full of new foliage that I cut back...now I will be cutting big limbs into smaller twigs for the next week. The sun was out, the air warm and a cool breeze pushing thoughts of tropical locales from the west while I was ravaging nature with my 31 foot, 5 pound, all aluminum lim lopper..that's probably not what it is scientifically know as, but it does describe it well enough..

A plan is afoot to tear down the Cow Palace near me and replace it with some "development", whatever that means...hopefully not before August when I take my soon-to-be-21 year old niece for her first tattoo...I have been promising her this since she was about 14...never thought we would both live to see the day.. I'll be contemplating one for myself as well..can't take her and not get one myself.

The Maibock tapping party is still on for the end of April...it is much more mature than last years version..drier and has dropped much more yeast...much more refined than last years batch..amazing what a bit of planning will do..when I am allowed the pleasure of planning...you know what I mean Yes, you in the back row pointing at yourself...

The cat is awake and thirsty...must she make more noise than I while drinking??? Okay, I make more noise AFTER I stop drinking...
