Wanna Race Our FOB- 53 Year Old Lindle Willnow?

Remember the movie The Color Of Money where Tom Cruise hustles his way through the pool circuit?

Well I think we just may have landed the perfect horse to bet on- our boy Lindle.

Unassuming, old, not particularly in any type of ectomorph runners body shape and the absolute perfect man to back with odds against these young hot shot runners.

So we’ll just trot out our Horse Lindle, take odds against the youngsters and clean up when he kicks their butt all over the place!  Winking smile

Our boy Lindle laid an absolute beat down, finishing 12th out of 218 runners at age 53!!!

To me that was a seriously impressive feet.  Almost as impressive as TJ finishing and winning a whole 2 and a half minutes before the second place finisher.

But the story in this post isn’t about TJ’s extraordinary race as a 34 year old in the prime of his life.  It’s about 53 year old Lindle Willnow and how he showed that you don’t have to be a 20 or 30 year old elite physical specimen to compete, you just gotta get out there and do it!

Congratulations Lindle, from all your GMG buddies we are seriously proud of you!

On Behalf of Pathways for Children and Myself ~ Thank You to the Beautiful Manchester Garden Club Ladies!!!

Manchester Garden Club at Pathways ©Kim Smith 2014After months of planning and coordinating, this week we installed the new butterfly garden at Pathways for Children. We’ll be bringing you more updates from the garden but I wanted to first thank our super hard-working, fabulous and fun, beautiful team of volunteers from the Manchester Garden Club. We planted the garden in record time due to their can-do-attitudes. Thank You Ladies–you were simply the BEST!!!

And, success! As Bernie Romanowski, the facilities director, and I were tidying up, not one, but two butterflies stopped by to investigate the new garden, a Cabbage White and a Canadian Tiger Swallowtail. I wished our volunteers had seen that. Plant and they will come!

Thank You Frieda Grotjahn…I Love my new Again & Again Tote Bag!

Homeward Bound

Today, Sunday 6/8/14, I'm being discharged from the Rehab and going home. It has been a grueling five month journey. Along the way, I resided at three medical facilities that treated and nourished me back to health. Without them, I wouldn't be traveling the next path - to my home in Pigeon Cove. "One never reaches home, but wherever friendly paths intersect the whole world looks like home for a time." Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) Pigeon Cove map 1852

Radio Shack 127 Eastern Ave in Gloucester.

I have been having a terrible time with my iPhone 5.  Apparently some people have had 

a hard time shutting the iPhone 5 off, and unfortunately, I am one of them.  Finally, it wouldn’t shut off at all, so after weeks of it on constantly, the battery was shot.  So much time wasted each day with the crazy phone.  Now I am a strong Apple fan and have been almost from the beginning of the company.  BUT after driving an hour to an Apple store in our state of New Jersey, they said I would have to leave it with them for five or six days.  I don’t think so.  You should be very proud to have such a wonderful Radio Shack in Gloucester.  A lovely woman called their tech, Travis, who was off for the evening, and believe it or not, after we spoke on the phone, he came right into the store.  Travis set a time on his day off, the next day, and came in to work on my phone.  Two hours later…FIXED!  Completely, and for a fair price.  I declare them better than Apple; never thought I would say that.  Just know that if you have a technical issue, there is a good chance, Travis can fix it…cheerfully too!  Thank you for fixing my iPhone, I feel blessed for stopping into Radio Shack.  Linda
