i finally put away the boat and all the yard furniture, i even folded up all the recycling. Didn’t manage to get EVERYTHING off the porch that i usually do, some of it is stuff i am still sorting through like buckets of tools etc. I just cant bring myself to put the bike in […]
A kid who makes such things put up a video tour of the rail trail…this is the thing i spent the last 4 years of my life building. Doesn’t look like much, but what was there when i started was weeds and steel. There are still weeds but they aren’t in the middle of […]
started writing this a few times…but i have been glued to this machine for a few days…and i mean glued..i found a shortcut for formatting books from OCR’d files…and i have pushed through a couple of books and started working on some others. no one’s buying them..but i have hope. I ordered a whole bunch […]
This what the text from my address to the Methuen City Council last night, I sent it in as a letter to the editor…lets see what happens. In 1835, Darwin was on the Beagle discovering evolution, Andrew Jackson was the seventh President of the United States and what we now call the SANDS BRIDGE on […]

The company who owns the property stopped mowing the lawn as soon as they knocked down the building. It’s been annoying the […]

I spied this puddle/pond out on the Danvers rail trail today…and I was dumbfounded…apparently mother nature doesn’t know that this is supposed to be JANU-FUCKING-WARY. Since we had that freak October snowstorm that kicked the crap out of New England we never did get a decent winter. Any snow fall hasn’t lasted more than a […]
Went for a morning hike along the rail trail this morning…warm and foggy morning…i was mildly perturbed…i had a small flask of butterscotch schnapps flopping pointlessly in my pocket…i was banking on a winter nip in the air. alas nothing doing…just fog and lichen. The rail trail may get constructed this winter…apparently a frozen ground […]
