Maureen Agatha's Dash

My favorite part of our trip was Dave taking me to see first light.my phone battery died so my pictures are on camera.  We also tried to catch meteor showers from boat hatch but only saw stars and satelites. I thought that was pretty romantic too! I met Allie Jakes girlfriend. Jake was there with a welcoming smile. He had trouble with his boat Mobday but Dave helped him with it. The funniest conversati I n was Heidi talking about the tiny house electric people and jumping up out of her chair to demonstrate how they wore their tight speedo or spandex pants with their junk showing. 2nd to that was the debate about  coed crew. Finding condoms in the cabins. Amy suggesting more trash cans as a solution. Someone saying they should be glad they are practicing safe sex. Anyway a convesation that came up probably had more to do with Chris Little coming to work crew and growing up and less about finding condoms. Im sure he will do fine in keeping the Barker tradition. Let him e...

I thought we were going to get up for sunrise but by the time I looked out my bedroom window just before 5 am first light turned  almost overcome by the bright sun.  I let Dave sleep and did my normal routine with Ruby Andy and Gizmo. Made coffee took a long bath and started popovers! Dave got up as they were getting ready. I made sandwiches and packed dog food crackers cheese and poppers.  Did dishes. Packed bags.  I included some art supplies. 3 Mile island is our destination today. We are going to stay overnight. Packing for the boat is so much work I wonder if it's worth it . When I get on the water I forget all about those thoughts. I compare it to childbirth then having a kid. How you forget about the pain. Back to today. I picked a rodedendrum not sure of the spelling and took it over to mom. Dave said he had to wash the boat. I don't know what happened to get up and go. It rarely works out that way. I was back by 930 am.  I guess I will carry...

The most powerful tribute to the fallen today is the Field of Honor in Rochester Nh and I will get pictures of it later. I went to visit mom today but she was sleeping. I decided not to wake her. She will probably be upset about that later. Dave and I went to Job Lots to get a fan. I also scored a pair of sandals. My favorite kind. My first pair were hand me downs from my son Michael. I think he grew out of them by age 12 and I wore them for about 8 years after that! Then I got a pair of bear paws that lasted 4 or 5 years. AndTODAY I scored THESE!

Yesterday Robin Reasbeck told me she had covid and they couldn't give her an infusion because it was non responsive to this variant. I asked to to get Paxlovid. Today she called to tell me they had not heard of it. It is federally funded and she has it on order to be delivered d to Benwood wv.
