Glad you made it Micca. Would you mind cleaning the penguin shit off the table? And collect the little critters all in one place. They seem to be adhering to walls, inserting themselves in assorted scenes and in general making a nuisance of themselves. Bernadette of Lourdes is particularly upset at the one sneaking a peek up the Virgin's skirt.
Now all I need is a miniature Dopey to herd them around.

I will deal with these slanderous allegations in the order they are posted
1 The directions were printed out before we left and included at least one non existant street in Keene in their final stages

2 there were NO illuminated house numbers or mail boxes in the street when we found it but there was a note on the door directing us.
3 I am NOT pre-programmed not to ask the way, I frequently do(for further evidence ask my spiritual adviser, they will tell you I am always asking for directions)
4 We arrived back in Portland at about 1 am and decided it would be kinder not to wake Mary as we know she has an early start. BTW the arrangement was we would call if we were NOT coming back that evening,
5 We were delayed by the same problem that Mary and I had making the same journey before by the confusing signage near Concord NH which ended with us heading North towards Laconia instead of East to Portsmouth.
6 Why do I seem to spend an inordinate amount of time on my visits to the USA wandering around in the dark in the back areas of New Hampshire?
7 and my final comment is ".......and the Horse......"

Locked you out??? You were supposed to call and let me know if you were coming back Wednesday or Thursday. Why didn't you ring the bell or knock???? What time did you get back? I was up late last night but sitting in the sun room.
I don't believe a word of it.
And by the way where did all those F$%#@&ing penguins come from? They are everywhere. One even crapped on the dining room table!
SINS, cranky

The door is unlocked now.

If a certain Gnome had thought to ask for directions before we set out, there wouldn't have been a problem...

As to where the little fuzzy one is now, he just woke up from a lovely night on my couch because someone locked him out last night.

Micca and Tami have been and gone and left me with the happy glow that only such incendiary devices can achieve! They got hopelessly lost, in Keene of all places, but came staggering in eventually, whence we picked up our conversation where we left off in London 2 years ago!

They are wending their way back to the coast in the darkness, but sheer Micca-ness will light the way home.

And I must say I was delighted to finally get to meet ranger1!

An excellent meal and a new recruit for the Press room. Our waitress is an English Major who enjoys serving and folk music. She went away with a plethora of business cards and a Gordon Bok CD. Hope Micca gave her a tip as well.
Thank you, Micca. The meal was wonderful Sorry I couldn't finish my dessert - I didn't expect Chocolate Cake for Three.
The wine tasting was memorable but I am sorry I missed out on the single malt marathon the night before.
Micca is tucked away in the pink paradise upstairs awaiting the arrival of Tami and another adventure - this time with Allison.
I am off to work and sanity.

Sins, I think you have got it essentially right, I am very much enjoying the quiet time in the rainy woods of New Hampshire and the company of friends , if you heard what sounded like a raucous after dinner party, well I think it must have been something on TV, as we were having a very quiet after dinner chat about the mystical significance of certain songs, such as Baa Baa Black sheep and the hidden messagees in "Whup, Jamboree"" and anyone at says there was drink taken is mistaken!!!

He is with Linn and Tom - a very raucous bunch including Jeri last night. Tonight dinner at the Acorn then back to Maine and a rainy day in Tami's park. He will be in your arms on Thursday, Allison. Leave some for us! Tami is in charge of him. Then back to Maine . Dinner on Thursday with TruBrit - anyone see a pattern here? This is as bad as Kendall and his groupies.
Friday - I am not sure.
Saturday - the Shanty Sing.
Sunday - head for home unless we can convince him to stay.
Of course this changes hourly so feel free to update.
