I'm not a tourist, I live here.

In all endeavors of life, it does help to keep a little bit of humor  with you.

I notice when people from away come for a weekend or a week, the outside light usually stays on all night. Why? For the raccoons and skunks? To annoy the neighbors? Are you people scared if the dark?
Once, some people left their light on for an extended period of time. Said light shone into my normally very dark room for that time. It was annoying. It went out. Enough said.

As I look up at my calendar, I see it is now April. The town is and has been very quiet for about 2 weeks. The snowmobilers and most of the skiers have gone, and the summer complaints still have a few months before they start to harass us. Or entertain us. You see, it's all a matter of how you look at it.

With spring I'll be getting out more and hopefully reviving this blog. I have some ideas for some projects and well  we will have to see just how much fun I get get into, so hang in there.

Very much looking forward to more writing from you. And I also share your frustrations with outdoor lights. My neighbors leave their porchlight on all night, and often all day. Not sure the point of either!

Thanks Erin. The point of outside lights in the country I now see is to light the grounds strictly for the entertainment of the skunks.
