Good morning from Maine, where the sun is shining as I have my second cup of coffee of the day. Yeah, at 5:07 I’m having my second cup. That’s what happens when you have small children and a puppy. Speaking of puppies, ours has her first meeting with a trainer this morning. We’re all excited about it. I hope you have something fun and exciting to do this weekend.
The only thing I am not looking forward to this weekend are the swarms of black flies I will encounter every time I stop on my bike and when I mow the lawn. May in Maine is defined by the transition from cool, wet days to warm days filled with swarms of black flies (mosquitoes).
