8 of the surviving Apollo astronauts got together for the 50th anniversary of the moon landing, and Buzz Aldrin’s outfit stole the show


7:26 AM Sassy
Thought you’d like the flag socks.

  
7:30 AM Phil
I have a pair of those!
Thought the suit was cool too!
7:31 AM Sassy
I wish there was a close up – I may go look for one. He’s a hoot!

7:32 AM Phil
Always has been

8:13 AM Sassy

Apparently it’s International Beer Day! Enjoy!

Happy Friday kid!

7:15 AM Phil
Happy Friday!

7:16 AM Sassy
You heading out on an adventure?

7:41 AM Phil
Doggies to the vet and maybe out for lunch

9:04 AM Sassy
A true sign of spring!

6:12 PM Sassy
Hope your weekend is off to a grand start!

I can’t recommend this, but it made me think of you.

10:37 PM Phil
I love it!

[We had a discussion about his new job… he is facing an intense challenge!] 

10:39 PM Sassy
Yikes

10:40 PM Phil
Tough situation to walk into

10:40 PM Sassy
You’re probably better equipped to do it than many people

10:42 PM Phil
Dealt with this before unfortunately. 

They are looking for me to be a healer and fixer. 
Have to tread lightly but firmly

10:43 PM Sassy
You know most of that road

10:44 PM Phil
Yeah, no fun

10:46 PM Sassy
Maybe listen a lot

10:47 PM Phil
That’s an absolute requirement and go slow

10:47 PM Sassy
I remember you dealing with something similar

10:48 PM Phil
It’s always hard

10:48 PM Sassy
I was just reading about a the first Maine State Trooper to die in the line of duty in 22 years

31 year old guy… was an instructor – mostly in polygraph use for detectives… stopped to help a motorist whose car went into the ditch in the snow. Front tire came off a logging truck and slammed into him… bizarre

10:50 PM Phil
That’s a tough profession. When it’s your time

10:50 PM Sassy
6 month old son.

The cop who writes the Bangor FB page was struck silent…hasn’t posted since

Just so odd… all the things you worry about and try to protect yourself from and your number comes up with a flying tire?

I wish you were here… I’d take you Lobsta Land tomorrow!

The Lobster chowder is calling me

10:56 PM Phil
I’d like that. Going to get oysters though
Love lobster chowder

I bet Lobsta land makes a great lobster roll

Wish I had an answer for why things happen. I have a hard time believing that tire or the mess I’m facing was part of any plan

11:06 PM Sassy
Never had one-I like my lobster like my men. HOT

11:07 PM Phil
Oooh! Lobster roll isn’t bad though

I prefer it hot too

11:11 PM Sassy
Mmmm

What time did you wake up today?

11:15 PM Phil
6:00, same time tomorrow

11:16 PM Sassy
Have a sea anemone

11:16 PM Phil
Wow

11:17 PM Sassy
Aren’t those colors something?!

11:17 PM Phil
Beautiful

Time to play and then off to bed

11:19 PM Sassy
Have fun!

11:19 PM Phil
Yes ma’am

Mass start

April 4, 2019 Thursday

6:38 AM Sassy
Good morning Phil! 
We made it to Thursday!
One week til the big reception at work. Whee!

6:58 AM Phil
Good morning! Rolling into my last week with the old job and it’s my Friday!

7:00 AM Sassy
Wow! Hope it ends easily.

8:19 PM Sassy
I found out there is another dog sled race after the Iditarod!  There are 16 mushers, including my favorite – Nic Petit from Girdwood! 

Here’s a drone shot of the “mass start” at Kobuk 440 Sled dog race. Unlike the Iditarod where mushers take off every two minutes, they drop a hat at this race and everyone mushes off across the ice in front of the hotel in Kotzebue in far northwestern Alaska!

Stand in the shower

April 2, 2019 Tuesday

7:44 AM Sassy
Have a superb Tuesday! I’m off to the eye doctor-yet another eye infection. Bleh.

8:03 AM Phil
That sucks. Hope the Dr goes well.

12:36 PM Sassy
Survived the doctor – he said it’s a sty – a clogged gland…eye is too dry. So hot compresses and no fan on my face! Whee
1:42 PM Phil
That’s good. Go stand in the rain
  
1:44 PM Sassy
Rather stand in the shower with you

1:44 PM Phil
well that would have the same effect

1:44 PM Sassy
Or maybe the hot tub?

Yup.  Another festival.
Close to home and a lot of fun.

9:19 AM Sassy
Nice!

9:23 AM Phil
It is one of my favorites. All local craft brewers, vendors and a few wineries for my wife, and great food! Crab cakes coming up!

9:24 AM Sassy
oooh!
Good weather?

9:25 AM Phil
Supposed to be in the mid 70s but a little overcast so it should be nice. Flip flops and shorts

9:27 AM Sassy
We’ve got clouds and 60s. Itching to go to Gloucester, but I should wait a week…

9:28 AM Phil
Sounds pretty decent for this time of year!

We are off to festivals galore in the next few weeks. Great seafood and always a fun day

9:29 AM Sassy
Wow! That sounds nifty!

7:32 AM Sassy
Happy Friday kid!

Uncle of a kid from our hometown that my sister dated was laid to rest at Arlington National cemetery today… was MIA for 50 years.

Remains identified of Air Force pilot killed during daring Vietnam rescue attempt

3:41 PM Phil
Wow! Happy to hear he is home.

3:41 PM Sassy
Hard to fathom what that is like for a family…
He left 4 kids

3:44 PM Phil
I lost friends over the years. 

It’s a dangerous business. 
We always knew it could be lights out any time. 
Happy my number never came up

3:44 PM Sassy
Amen
The whole MIA thing is another level of hell
Amazing they’re still identifying them

3:47 PM Phil
Yep. Amazing but gut wrenching

3:51 PM Sassy
You hanging in?

4:02 PM Phil
I’m good, 10 min from home and the weekend!

4:02 PM Sassy
Awesome!
