I get to drive downstate tomorrow. You can send the sympathy cards to me here at the station.

Loraine and I are going down to visit her dad for the holiday weekend. It's actually our first trip downstate since Loraine's mom died last year, and it'll be nice to see everyone again. Technically, we've seen Loraine's dad, one of her brothers, and two of her nephews since then, as they all like visiting Marquette, but it'll be nice to see them on their home soil, and to visit the one other thing in Reese worth visiting--
The parking lot produce stand.
As you may recall, Reese sits in the middle of a bunch of (very) flat farm fields. And whenever we're down there I always walk a few blocks (being, perhaps, the only person in Reese who actually walks anywhere) and pick up (literally) farm fresh fruits and produce to munch upon. However, this is the first time since the produce stand went up that we're down there in May, well before most crops are ready, so I'll be curious to see what the selection is like.
If there's much of a selection at all, that is.
Other than that, I'll just be visiting and writing, the two things that seem to rule my life these days. I have my "Happy Hour" tour to work on, a TV piece for NEXT Monday (already), and perhaps noodling on those new "Pieces of the Past" I mentioned earlier this week. On the way back Tuesday I'll also write a new one of these, and if I get a chance I'll post it that afternoon. If not, you'll see it fresh on Wednesday morning, complete with pictures.
Maybe even one showing just stocked (or unstocked) the produce stand was.
So have yourself a great extended weekend and, if at all possible, tell the lilacs to wait until Tuesday before fully coming out. After all, I want to enjoy opening day just as much as everyone else!

Here's how they looked on my way home last night, if you're curious...
