So we didn't get the snow for Christmas. up here in Maine. The world didn't get peace again and I didn't get a Mercedes. 

So Christmas was brown here - but it probably snowed somewhere - we just weren't specific enough. World peace is, well, out there somewhere, we just need to grasp the concept in our hearts. But we have to open our hearts before that happens. And my Prius with 150,000 miles on it is still running like a charm (knock on wood), so who needs a brand new Mercedes anyway.

A long time ago I decided to adhere to a Stones lyric that says:

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want ( think this is said three times because we don't seem to get it on the first two tries. Some of us still don't get it)

But if you try sometimes, well, you might find

you get what you need

Ah, yeah

Don't despair you bumming skier

it will snow again. 

It happens every year,

now and then.

 

And though it's hard to imagine a time

when we are skiing a sugar white slope

it will snow and the sun will shine

so tune your skis, imagine and hope!

I saw these two boats last summer in Carvers Harbor out on Vinalhaven Island and thought to myself, someone who lives out there year 'round really needs to make them into a holiday greeting card. It's perfect and totally the real Maine.
