In a phone conversation with my friend Gillian, in which I talked about the odd-ball next-door neighbors Irene has in Hull (bicycle man and bamboo house - more on that later), Gillian suggested that we run a "Glamorous Sea-side Resort" contest between Hull and Monhegan Island. We could post photos, tell stories, and compare the various funkinesses of our respective communities.
When I shared the idea with Irene she bemoaned the fact that Monhegan would win hands down. That was until I told her that not all houses had running water and electricity. Anyway, I think it would be a fun way to share our respective "get away" places. I imagine that Chris and George will want to get in on the act too, and I know they will be creative. So lets see where it goes.
First I need to find a digital camera.

this sounds like a majorly good idea. All we need is the time to get some funk together...because FUNK is us, baby, and hands up or down, this will be fun. great idea
Okay, our funk-factor is going to change. The house next door, which had the plastic and lattice work covering the front porch, and bikes in the yard, is getting cleaned up. Front porch is cleared and it reveals a very nice house underneath. Likewise the yard is getting cleared out. What is not gone is being hidden by the tall grass. And the biggest news is that it is being sold. So "bicycle man" and his crazier brother are going to be gone soon.
