Thank all of you who "liked" and commented on my Memorial Day post. FYI Precisely at 3 p.m. on Memorial Day I stood in my yard and played Taps on my trumpet thinking of Lt. Mackey, my Dad and all those graves in the American Cemetery above Omaha Beach where there are approximately 10,000 soldiers buried ... all who died on the beaches of Normandy on D Day.
FOR TODAY: As I walked back to the office after lunch ... I crossed Center Street, a little up hill from the intersection of Center Street and Patsburg Ave. Taking a gander down toward the intersection, I saw there was a detour for west bound traffic on Patsburg Ave. rerouting traffic onto Center St. ... Then I noticed that fella who just got off the Greyhound bus. I got to ah wondering about who that fella is. He's all duded up in his Sunday's finest, looking like some kinda big city lawyer, and it's only Friday! Heck he could be some kinda business tycoon ... but hey! .... a business tycoon would probably have a fancy limo and a driver or his own private railroad car ... so he ain't that .. but he's definitely not from around these parts! I don't know ... He looks too dignified or citified, or upityfied, or prissyfied ... but definitely some kinda fied! ... hmmm!
I also noticed that the Clegget family is leaving on vacation in their Woody and towing their new Air Flow camper trailer behind. At the pancake supper over at the church last Saturday, Morty Clegget told me they'd be ah leaving on Friday. Then there's that guy in a trench coat ... what the heck is up to? ... it's 85 degrees out here and this guy has on a trench coat! Don't make no kinda sense to me, but hey, to each his own! Way back yonder I can see Gordy, the Sealtest milkman, gettin into his Divco milk truck. Ol Gordy and I belong to the same lodge, Locomo Lodge 611. I can tell you one thing ... Gordy is a real good fella! .... Just another day in Patsburg!
