Just when you think it is over…
The Universe rears up its ugly head and reminds you that it can rain hell on you at any time.
This just breaks my heart, for several reasons
I hate to see historical markers or monuments vandalized. It’s bad enough that my own ancestor’s monument was vandalized in recent years. I mentioned the other day that someone had vandalized the Shaw monument on Beacon Street. It happened while I was working literally down the street. Well, I had a chance to see the damage for myself.

New Hampshire Gift Shops and Other Scary Things
As you may have seen from Geoff’s post from the other day about Inappropriate Napping, we spent Thursday in New Hampshire with Geoff’s parents, sister, brother in law, and the kids.
