Visiting the P. Graham Dunn, art, gifts, home decor... store in Dalton, Ohio Nov. 25, 2016 Friday

It is a fascinating store that manufactures and sell woodworking products; much of which is of a patriotic, agricultural, arts and crafty, and religious theme.

The customers are predominantly Mennonite and some Amish - complete with horse and buggies outside. Another great bonus is that the clientele actually dresses appropriately to be out in public. And folks are respectful and polite. Just saying.

It is a really neat store. Almost like an art gallery... Perfect place to visit for someone who maintained his woodworking workshop and radial arm saw in the living room for fifteen years.

Yesterday we picked-up our Thanksgiving turkey. Wed. Nov. 23, 2016

Yesterday we picked-up our Thanksgiving turkey. Too funny - it says that it was "vegetarian fed." I, for one, am glad that we did not purchase a predator carnivorous  blood-thirsty killer turkey.

It also says that it was a "free-range" turkey. Whenever I think of free-range chickens and turkeys, I think of the June 19, 1967 classic movie, "King of Hearts."

According to one media source, "This quirky comedic war film focuses on Scottish soldier Charles Plumpick (Alan Bates), who is sent to a French town on a mission to disarm a bomb left behind by the retreating German army. Plumpick discovers that the area is deserted except for the inmates of the local asylum.

The mental patients playfully take over the town and pronounce the soldier their king. While Plumpick is intrigued by the antics of the former inmates, he must stay on task and find the bomb before it detonates..."

Hats off to Hannah Brewer. Ms. Brewer, in her role as Miss Maryland ...

Hats off to Hannah Brewer. Ms. Brewer, in her role as Miss Maryland, has done an incredbly great job of representing Carroll County and Maryland. We are so proud of her.

According to this well-written article by awesome Carroll County Times writer, Jacob deNobel, in addition to "her duties as Miss Maryland, the holiday season provides Hannah Brewer with another series of tasks.  The nonprofit she runs, Hannah's Heroes, increases production of holiday cards, gifts and care packages to be sent to military members overseas..."

Hannah Brewer attended and made a great presentation for a meeting of the Maryland Troopers Association Lodge # 20. We were quite impressed with her poise, presence and enthusiasm

Respect! Sun. Nov. 20, 2016

Grammy, Caroline, and I went to dinner at Asian Sakae in the Cranberry Square Shopping Center. I had vegetable fried rice. Caroline had Chinese vegetables, and Grammy had the Moo Shu Pork.  Clay was not our server. Our server was Rachelle. She is da bomb. Asian Sakae was very busy. And it was epic to see Theresa, Tom, and Thomas Bethune at the restaurant. Fri. Nov. 18, 2016.

Uncle Kevin and Kenai Grace Babylon

Uncle Kevin and Kenai Grace Babylon have not seen each for awhile and are excited to have a conversation. Wed. Nov. 16, 2016. Since we are both sick of the election, we talked about string theory. At least we understand string theory.
