Great weekend? You bet. My house painting services were needed in The Hamptons, that's right, The Hamptons - What, you never heard of The Hamptons? -- Playground of the rich and famous?

Anyway, Walter, "Sally" and myself headed out there Thursday night. I drove my Jeep and they drove their car. I could have gone with them but I like the freedom of driving, plus I was able to load up some of their stuff. It was beneficial to all.

My Jeep has been acting up again, it's fickle, 20 years of sitting in a garage did more harm than good. When you start your car, you turn the key and it starts. I turn my key and get nothing. Then I have to get under the hood to hotwire it. I think my radio may be the cause, I unplugged it and that seems to have done the trick. But I won't know until next weekend. One "problem" of unhooking the radio? I turned on my headlights last night and the buzzer that rings when you leave the car with your lights on came on and stayed on - for about 2 solid hours. But that will be an easy fix because as soon as I have the time to find that buzzer, its days are numbered.

Back to The Hamptons, that's right, The, oh nevermind. We painted all weekend, there's not much to tell. We had a great dinner Saturday night. Thanks to Walter and "Sally" for hooking me up. I have very lovely friends.

Sunday we went to the beach. September 21st and my large butt was riding the waves. That's some sweet living!

Sunday night, traffic. We left at 5 and I got back to Hoboken at 9:14. It's only 61 miles away but the traffic. There was traffic leaving The Hamptons, traffic coming into the city and traffic entering the Lincoln tunnel. Bumper to bumper and "BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ", THE WHOLE TIME!!!!!! I felt like driving the truck into a brick wall.

Damn good weekend. OK, that's all I have.

Have a great day!

Always,

Me
