Don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour tonight.

My View of Life on the Dock
Happy to update this post thanks to some great information from some readers!
So, it sounds like this building is being raised so that work can be done on its foundation and that it will remain in its current location! I’m glad…because we walk, run, ride bikes by it often and I would certainly miss it! So, a more fitting title would be, “Up, Up, and Going to Stay.”
Thank you also to Bill Hubbard for sending a fantastic photo of the Straitsmouth US Life Station from the early 1900s…around 1906. Be sure to scan all the way down to see said photo!
This always fascinates me. If I’m correct, this is a part of the old Coast Guard Station in Rockport. I’m not sure where it is headed….maybe a FOB can fill me in?

Halloween morning I dressed in jeans, a heavy long sleeve shirt with black and white stripes, a watch jacket, and outrageous pirate hat. All of these items came from Bananas, a vintage clothing store on Main Street. Captain Fred’s first adventure of the day was a medical appointment at Addison gilbert Hospital. As I got off the bus, I almost chickened out with the hat, but decided to just suck it in and go for it.
I got a lot of attention walking through the lobby, down the hall, and in the elevator. Everyone who passed by smiled, and most said “Happy Halloween” or “Trick or Treat.” Once on the fourth floor, oncology, I was greeted by a witch, and signed in by a Thing with blue hair. I had found kindred spirits on my favorite floor. Of course, we had to take a photo. Nurse Kristen is the witch on my right, and Myriah, of departmental administration, is the Thing on my left. Whether Witch or Thing, they are great people providing exceptional care to me and all of their patients.

So the girl is very attractive. I’d be willing to bet that no matter how attractive a man is, if you reversed the gender roles in this video not one of the women rubbing lotion on the man’s back would stick around like these guys stuck around after the girl in the video let it rip.
These dudes are like “What, you just farted in my face? No problem, happens all the time.”
Now have a good looking guy fart in some girl’s grill while she rubs lotion on him and there’s zero percent chance that girl sticks around looking for a date.
