     Yes, another YEAR has passed.
      And a lot has happened here at the Wayward Inn.

     My Lobster's father is now at rest after many decades of aches and pains. It hasn't been easy for those he left behind especially for The Oma. But, we will all try to help her as much as we can even though we are 3,000 miles away.

     Tomorrow Chef Blaine and Sous Irene will be laying out a fine table. Ribs, skewered chicken, salad and stuff. Elric the Stalwart and his Better Half  will be dining at the Wayward Inn. My buddy from Over the Hump is going to be joining us as is the Fair Gail. Chef Blaine will also be making a pan of Johnny Cake as a side dish. It's kinda like corn bread and it's important to pull this one off perfectly. You see, Elric the Stalwart once served the Chef a batch of corn bread that wasn't quite up to scratch. He tried to redeem himself with a second offering but unfortunately seconds are just that seconds.  So Sorry.

     The surveyors are mapping out the new roadway from Vanier Drive to Piercy Road. That will include replacing the old Bailey bridge across the Tsolum River. Time for completion is supposed to be the same time as the opening of the new hospital. Well, we'll see about that.

     Midnight shift sucks. But what is a person to do? Earlier yesterday morning I witnessed a doe defend it's new fawn from the daring attack of an eagle. The doe actually ran towards the approaching bird rising up and kicking it's front legs. The eagle departed leaving the doe to shepherd it fawn back into the brush.

      The day after my birthday celebration and feast, my friend From Over the Hump and I headed out to the Mighty Mohun to drown some worms. We camped at nearby Morton Lake and over the next couple of days we brought in 18 wild cutthroat trout. Mohun Lake has yet to fail to produce. We kept the first four for supper Sunday night and released all the rest. We are planning to bring the fly rods the next time we go out there.

     Wow! This blog is really drawing out.  Sorry about that.

     Preparations are coming together for our Senior Couch Monkey's graduation. Of course, we know nothing of the order of events because he will not involve himself. We do know that there is some stuff happening and have pulled that info off the schools website. But, as to any particulars that a graduating student would be keen on knowing...nothing. We will have to ensure that he requests five tickets to the awards ceremony as The Sages may be coming to the event. At our suggestion he finally invited them. I don't know what to get him for a graduation gift. A heartfelt letter and a kick in the ass?

     Anyways, Dear Reader,  I will close this delayed rant and look for new stuff to pen.
