sorry, bro

Every time I come back home to the PNW, I'm amazed at the beauty, the greenness and the quiet of our place.

The house is really poorly finished with hollow doors and crappy trim and it's small for a family of 4. No TV/ entertainment system except for the PC. It's not a home to impress.

But the location and the canopy of sitkas, cedars, hemlocks and ferns is awesome. There's a wide variety of berries from button berries, red currants, huckleberries and native cascade trailing blackberries, the little tart ones, not the invasive ones with the huDge thorns and brambles as well as a few wild strawberries which concentrate a sweet tartness like no other fruit. I can't see any other houses from anywhere near our house.

Number one son turns 15 in a couple of days, it's been cool and damp and rained last night so all the fireworks drunks stopped early. Now just the sounds of dew dripping off the needles and leaves after coming back from seeing the world.

Yeah, despite a lot of other difficulties, it's important to enumerate the good stuff.

Know what Dead Heads say when they run out of intoxicants?

Man this music really sucks.

Very cool. I'm sitting on my deck listening to the Meadowlarks and hummingbirds, the dogs are just hanging out, watching the scene.

How was your trip?

[Buster Highmen]

The trip was awesome. Paris was the tits. The way the women there hold you in their eyes as they pass you on the sidewalk is something - I'm not that good looking and had my wife and family in tow but man, some of those looks. We did the mondo art wad plus lots of churches and walked everywhere. Stayed on edge of Latin Quarter, spent most time either right bank or St. Germain. Gourmando highlights included David Toutaine, Semilla and Relais de St. Germain.

Didn't do Vieux Guide since they didn't want to accommodate a gluten free wife and son. Edelweiss was very accommodating. Great snowball fight with the kids @ 3200 followed by beer and charcuterie. I'm going back to ski there next year if I can.

Dijon was really cool, incredible old funky, more real in a way than Paris (they still have their Les Halles) and the Musee des Beauxs Arts is awesome.

Everything was great until I walked back across our threshold here whence I got a 103+F fever for a couple of days. It's just abating. I'll try to muster a full tr.

Saw this and laughed. I couldn't find a "Getting Old" thread, so I will drop this here for all the dentists on this site.
