Settling in

We closed on the new home on Jan 11, and are finally settled in. We
are very happy with everything so far. The neighbors are super - had
us over for champagne our first night, and then the few neighbors that
are here had a welcoming dinner on our first week-end. There is a part
timer (lives most of the time in Alabama) who lives two doors down and
is supposed to be an avid flyfisher. Can hardly wait to meet him.

Relatives visited us this past week-end, with more due on Friday of
this week. Even Mildred (remember Mildred all of you at Fortenberry's
NC Clave?) will visit on the week-end of the 5th. I was engaged to
Mildred 50 years ago. She lives in nearby Franklin, NC.

With a booze locker that was totally empty (the house has a wet bar), I
sprung for some hard stuff today and treated myself to a bottle of 15
yo McCallan Single Malt. I am sipping as I type. I had forgotten how
smooth it is. There is see-through stuff for the boy lawyer (good
stuff, not that crap he normally drinks), and a small insufficient
supply of Yuengling for Jeffie. A couple of bottles of bourbon for
those so inclined, some tequila for all you crazy *******s, and some
rum for you Cuba Libre types. Hell, there's even a bottle of that
there Frenchy stuff Grand Marneaire for Richard.

I was supposed to go fishing this past Saturday, even though we had
house guests, but the weather was just too wet. Both Saturday and
Sunday saw heavy rains and some thunder storms. Sort of neat watching
it all come in from the western mountains. Many of the streams here
are like Penns - if it rains, they muddy up pretty quickly. (No
offense meant, Tom.)

I checked out Dukes Creek yesterday, and will probably fish it this
Wednesday. Water looked good inspite of all the rain.

Now back to your regular programing........

Reyka vodka? I can see you have not taken the same route as our boy
lawyer friend. I got some Pavlov to make him feel at home. d;o)

These Jawja package stores don't stock the 18 or 25 yo stuff. Remember
when we stopped at the NH State Liquor Store on Rt 495 on the way to
Maine? I looked up and saw a little boy in a giant candy factory.

Well, iffin the boy lawyer don't want that northern beer, I'll swing
by and take a tipple or two.

Y'all come on down.

It is a pleasure to go into the local food market and see Yuengling on
the shelf. A man could learn to like this southern living.
