Potato Blossom Festival
Wish us luck. Sue & I leave tomorrow for Fort Fairfield, host of the Maine Potato Blossom Festival. Sue will get to meet my "Evil Uncle Wayne from Houston who I don't care if I ever see alive again~ he's probably going to be the next Grand Dragon of Texas" for the 1st time. I love his wife. She's lovely. He's an ass.
Usually we love going to the Fest. It's a lot of fun. The only time the town isn't dead.
We'll also get to meet my sister's new beaux. She may have trapped herself a nice man.
I also want to get my very large, Irish-catholic family (most likely excluding Uncle Wayne) to hold up signs thanking Sens. Olympia Snow & Susan Collins, both Republicans, for voting AGAINST the Federal Marriage Amendment. I want them to see out lesbians in rural America this will effect. We may live in Mass, and intend to marry there, but my roots are as deeply entrenched in FF as those of the spuds I picked growing up!
