GRAND OPENING!

Yes, I am up at 7:43 am. Ed and I just got back from waiting in line for the very first L.L.Bean store in Mass. We got there around 6:30 this morning to wait in line and be one of the 1st 200 people in line. Just after 7 they handed out wrist bands to the first 200 and we will go back this morning on our way to New Jersey to pick up our free gift card! They can be anywhere from $25 to $500! I will take anything in between there! Now it's time for a nap. Ed says that no one will believe me that I was actually up and did this, so if you need proof you can ask him. =)

Remembering September 11 - poetic reflection

Dirge without Music, by Edna St. Vincent Millay

I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground.
So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind:
Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned
With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned.

Lovers and thinkers, into the earth with you.
Be one with the dull, the indiscriminate dust.
A fragment of what you felt, of what you knew,
A formula, a phrase remains, --- but the best is lost.

The answers quick & keen, the honest look, the laughter, the love,
They are gone. They have gone to feed the roses. Elegant and curled
Is the blossom. Fragrant is the blossom. I know. But I do not approve.
More precious was the light in your eyes than all the roses in the world.

Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave
Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned

There is an ice cream store not too far from Fraylie's college. Of course we had to stop! We even got to personally thank the cows that provided the milk to make it.

cause. Even a $5 contribution will help! Email

cancer.
