Hmmm, it looks like fall will be a little colder than normal. I really hope that's not true though.

Wow, now that's something special, and I would imagine that it was hard doing it all in one weekend.

Yeah that must have been fun. I know I am the strange one in our family... ever since I was a kid I always enjoyed the trip to and from the destination better than what we did when we got there... Well unless it was to the beach or disney world.

Well, the funny thing is this, from the South Western coast of Connecticut up to Vermont it is 2 hours 10 minutes then we went over to New Hampshire for lunch at a fellow Corvair Owners restaurant.
On the way home, we jumped on I-95 which brought us right down to Newport basically (well a little off the track) which was about 2 hours 25 minutes, put the Awning back up on the back deck of the vacation house so my Aunt who will be coming in from California has it to use this weekend, then 2 hours 17 minutes back home from Newport...
All of this and a fairly good day at the Corvair 50th Anniversary Auto Show... It was exhausting but a great deal of fun.
This weekend is going to be another one of those busy ones as I have about 16 friends coming over and I can just pray that the weather holds up for us. It is at that time of year that it can do just about anything at any moment.
After working yesterday, we drove in saw the U.S. Open... Good Going and congratulations to Raphael Nadal and also Great Job Novak!

Yep,,,, Good thing this Ole Bird does not drink too heavily from that particular fountain... He watches that one especially when friends and family are there...
See, Duddahs has only 1 functioning kidney so he is always mindful of the consumption from the Bird Bath!

Hey, Next time, I will make a guess and scream out the window. You will know it is me because I will be calling the name..... Harry Potter!
I am going to take a day trip up to Vermont in a few weeks to go and get a Pumpkin and some Maple Candy and a tall corn stalk for the walkway prior to Halloween.
I am going to take my truck... I think I will blend in better up there in a Black on Black Dodge Ram 1500 4X4 don't you?
I will peak in on my Grandfathers old house that we normally rent out. See, we rent it by the week during the Winters because it is not too far a drive from Bellows Falls to the Ski Sites of Vermont and New Hampshire. Also J.J. goes there with friends during his school vacation over the Holidays.

Duddahs fly's into the Gryffindor Common Room.
The room is flooded with streams of brilliant sunlight as it blasts its way through the leaded glass windows over the study table.
The Massive Stone fireplace is quiet. It is very comfortable here in the Gryffindor CR.
Duddahs walks around,,, spreads his wings,,,,does a slow whirl on the spot where a small house elf has stopped to watch the wacky Owl..
The house elf puts his mop down and pushes the bucket of dirty water out of his way.
He grabs Duddahs by the tips of his wings and begins to dance with the Ole Bird..
Duddahs cracks a broad smile, he turns his head over his shoulder and decides it is once again time for him to run round the common room in a bright blue sequine covered Speedo and a tank top that is just a bit too short allowing his belly to tumble out just a bit..
Duddahs lets the House Elfs hands go and it tumbles off into a corner, still dancing in circles until it crashes into a stool and then tumbles head first into his bucket of dirty water..
Duddahs rummages around in the drawer of a desk by the cloak closet..
There it is! HIS SPEEDO!
In a flash, Duddahs is suddenly hopping up and down doing arobics in his speedo and short top.. Looking all too much like Richard Simmons on caffeine, Duddahs begins to dance and grind away as the music from the movie Greese suddenly screams out of the Wizarding Wireless..
Duddahs is in his glory...
The house elf gets his head out of the bucket, head dripping, ears drooped, eyes all watery, dirty watery that is.. Then he gets in line behind Duddahs and begins touch his toes, reaching right, reaching left... Lifting his right and then his left foot, then falling flat on his behind because he had lifted both feet off the floor...
Duddahs turns, smiles a broad smile and continues his routine... A huge Afro like wig appears on Duddahs head.. Now that is the finishing touch he thinks to himself... Yep.. got to get me some exercise! Sweating to the Moldy Voldies! as they blast over the WW..
