Dear Ones:

Just a short note cause we?re runnin?
late.  Got up early to continue our
fast walk around the lake and now up
to almost a mile there and back.  Got
my mornin? weed wackin in and now gonna
rush thru a shower so not late to
the Annual Outhouse Race in Mexico
(bout 12 miles away).   Important to get
there early so we don?t miss the real
betting and cheering.   Right after
that we go to the Hog Callin/Husband
Callin? contest.

I tell you, these Yankees can?t call
hogs worth a damn.   Good mythology
tells us that the last time they tried
to call hogs in Florida, right after
the civil war, they drove almost all
the healthy razorbacks all the way to
Arkansas.  It?s pitiful, these folks
couldn?t call hogs if they just got
their leg caught in a rusty dull bear
trap.

Right after all this excitement, we
rush over to the Moxie Celebration in
Lisbon, about 40 miles of hilly curvy
two lane and near two lane roads that
are a revenoor?s delight.  He don?t got
to catch the ones with two tanks
full, he?s just got to make them go
over 50 miles an hour and gravity and
centrifugal forces do the rest, with a
touch of the high octanes hitting
that blistering engine block making
things interestin.

I don?t know if ya?ll remember Moxie.
In the old days when all the geniuses
doing work on soft drinks and sweet
stuff were trying to make their products
more tasty and palatable, Moxie made
their?s to taste like bad quinine based
medicine that made malaria a lookin good
option.  There?s a cult following
here and in New England, sort of like
those small groups in Mississippi and
Florida that meet at dusty, dirty
crossroads at midnight and bury unknown
and unspeakable pieces and parts and
creatures in the exact middle of the
crossroads.  Best not to challenge them
during daylight hours.

So, we will rush there at about 25 - 30
miles per hour, get there and head
for the Moxie ice cream stand.    If I
don?t choke a few bites down, the
people here will take away all my
complainin? rights and then it will be one
hot long summer where the days seem to
be about 20 hours long

Love,

D
