Memorial Day, 2013

 

 

Mary and I enjoyed a special day commemorating our love at first sight at the restaurant 35 years ago.

She wanted to visit most of the subdivisions we owned through the years.

This sign is still up for the 12 acre Nature Preserve named after us.

One lot we sold adjacent to it, now has its house for sale for $3 million.

 

 

Mass this morning before the start with a full turnout later.

I was surprised to learn that in New England only 1 in 10 goes to church.

 

Although I won't get 175 immediate Likes for my acting like Kristen just did on facebook,

we have been rehearsing for A MidSummer's Nights Dream to take place in this field under the next full moon.

I play Thisbe in a dress.  Here are my big scene lines:

Re-enter Thisbe
Thisbe
 
Asleep, my love?
What, dead, my dove?
 
O Pyramus, arise!
Speak, speak. …..Quite dumb?
Dead, dead? A tomb must cover thy sweet eyes.
These My lips, this cherry nose,
These yellow buttercup cheeks,
Are gone, are gone:
Lovers, make moan:
His eyes were green as leeks.
 
O Fates Three,
Come, come to me,
With hands as pale as milk;
 
Lay them in gore,
Since you have shore
With shears his thread of silk.
 
Tongue, not a word:
Come, trusty sword;
Come, blade, my breast imbrue:
Stabs herself
And, farewell, friends;
Thus Thisby ends:
Adieu, adieu, adieu.
Dies

 

 
OPTICAL ILLUSION STAIRCASE OR THE REAL THING????
