Spheres of various locations

We managed to get ourselves spread out this weekend. Friday morning Carol and Lois traveled up to northern Maine to visit their mother (Margaret), do a bit of work at the camp, take in the Swedish Midsommar Celebration in New Sweden and visit their father's (Alton) grave.

the activity areas at the Swedish Midsommar Celebration.

and Lois encountered in their travels.


Meanwhile Ian and went out for supper that evening and later watched my Blade Runner DVD. Saturday afternoon he took off for Vermont to meet up with a group of fellow students from the EcoQuest program they attended in New Zealand during this spring semester. So here I am at home - Ian 4 hours west of me and Carol 5.5 hours north of me, then by 4:30 today we're all back home. Just struck me kind of funny last night , home alone (with the furry beasts) and thinking about the relative locations of each of us at that moment.

well, you were not completely alone, the 'Old Rope' was lurking somewhere nearby...

Burlington is actually 4 hours west of here. You didn't pick that up while you were Google Earthing it.

Thanks Bud, I have an opening for a proof reader - pays great; room, board, transportation and all the overtime you can handle.
