EXPERIMENTAL HOPS FARM SOUTH

The Vice President of research and development is pleased to announce that the experimental hops farm (southern division) is up and running.
Thanks to a new rear tine Troy Built tiller and two large buckets of seasoned cow manure the first planting has taken place. Thankfully a worker was found who recently crossed the boarder from Mexico and was willing to work for food.All for now...will report tomorrow when the first shoots pop up. Am thinking about installing a computer camera in the yard and streaming images on line.

Travels

I'm aware that I should not post this on the web for fear my shares of Disney may take a dive, but there are other places to visit in the South besides Disney world. Ouch...that hurt...

Well we arrived back in Orlando from Mexico and found our car parked right where we left it. We then spent the night with Kelly (Mike and Colton were freezing in Mich) and took Kelly out for her birthday dinner. She found us this really neat Oyster bar and they gave her a free pitcher of beer. She shared it with me and not Cindy (somebody had to drive home.)

We then went to St. Augustine for three nights and took the free "First Responders Paranormal Investigators" tour. Our tour was led by the "Lead Investigator" (at least that's what his t-shirt said.) This is Cindy taking in every word. She kept trying to say things like "amazing" and "great experience" and "glad you brought me out here tonight Bo" but the only thing that came out of her mouth was "bullshit". I think it was the spirits!

This is me when I first realized my innate talent for communing with Ghosts. It was at the place where the Voodoo Queen was burned to death by an angry mob. I felt her icy breath on my cheek and heard her whisper 'bo youu da man' Thats when I knew I would have to bring my talents back to Chippewa Lake. I plan on buying an 'elf' meter (19.95 on Amazon.com) and leading tours of the famous haunted locations near Chippewa Lake. There may be some drinking involved (spirits invite spirits) so we'll need designated drivers. Details and invitations will be sent telekenetically and for those without "the gift" I'll just call you up.

This is St. Augustine by day. They got this old fort.

So now we're in Savannah. This is us in one of the 24 squares. They sure got a lot of flowers here.

My bout with the absess tooth is on the mend. Dr. Garlic phoned in some anti bodys for me and I'm felling a lot better although my face still looks like a chipmonk. I think it was the Voodoo Queen being pissed at Cindy. She probably threw a curse missed Cindy and hit me. Love you all and miss you.

INCIDENTS OF TRAVEL IN THE YUCATAN

Happy Easter

We are nearing the end of our Merida trip, wondering how we will get the kalua and other assorted stuff home without breakage and without buying another suitcase. We have had a great time here and, except for my ankle, have had no difficulties. We have been to the village three times and yesterday went to the Gulf of Mexico with the Lozada family for surf, fried fish, shrimp, and sun. Priscila's husband took us on a boat trip along a man made canal through "white mangrove" to a crystal clear cenote. Since there are no surface rivers on the peninsula, this was quite a surprise for us, and a lot of fun. Since we are yet to find a protestant church in Merida, we have been hanging out at the main cathedral off and on this weekend and it has been very busy with lots of processions among the various parish churches located throughout the city and with masses everyday. We went to a candle light mass last night in which I think the bishop presided. We were veryy tired fromour day at the beach that we gave up our seat to one of the many families that were packed into the hot, not-airconditoned cathedral. We will check it out again today.
We hope everyone is well and has a great Easter. We miss our family and friends. See you soon.
