Greetings Beadheads!

Filed under: Uncategorized — Barb @ 6:30 am

For those of you surfing around looking for something interesting to read or otherwise stimulate your senses…..I checked all my photos and found this pic of the boys bathroom.  The boys are the talented gardners extrodinaire that I visit while in Royal Oak.  Their whole house is pretty much gorgous and very artistic as you can see,  They do all the work themselves.  They ordered like thousands of shells from FL and did this bathroom.

I’ve worked on my gardens the last week or so now that it’s warming up.  Ann, sorry I did’nt get back to you last week.  I did read your comment.  So yes, I’m gardening.  Got a few banana plants in but they need HEAT and it’s still kinda chilli for them, although the first leaves are unfurling slowly.  THe veg garden is going.  Put the brussesls out but waiting to see if rabbits will find…still got squash and other stuff to add.  Lettuce is almost ready, and blah, blah, blah. 

Trying to get into the Northville show very last minute.  As usual the fair director is slow to comunicate, worst customer service ever.  A Fedex Gal finds poor customer service almost tooo much to bare, Samantha you know what I’m takin’ about!!  There are some upcoming highlights in the month of June!  Get together Grasser at the Gillet Farm in Parma.  You gotta go waaay back to the 70’s to recognize that term.  A grasser is a party in a field with beer and pot and friends.  As you may know I am completely straight since Joe’s death.  No drugs or beer.    It feels soo good to be clean and sober.  Really got my head together!!  Just enjoying the many blessings in my life.  Anyway, back to the grasser.  SO the boys from Parma are reuniting for a day at the farm.  Steve Gillet, well we put up hay together, painted the VW Van hot pink and just had a great summer back in 1968.  It was the Summer of Love. These guys stayed together at WMU and we were just a tight bunch of friends.  So you can imagine a reunion of this sort.  I guess it’s been 15 yrs since we’ve seen each other.  I’ll give ya a update, that is in 2 wks.  That’s all the news that I can think of.  Oh, one more thing…cold the person that is looking at this site from Jamaica please leave a comment as to who you are as I love all things Jamaican and I’m curious.  Thanks, Lotsa Love Comin’ at Cha!!  BK~

  3. Hi Barb:
    You haven’t changed one bit in more than 30 years! You look great!

    I’m so glad to hear you’re doing well. I still think back on the house on Fitch Street in Albion and your crazy Afghan hound (Shane, right?) who loved to run away.

    I live in Ann Arbor now and work for Michigan Radio. Have lots of cats and dogs.

    I’d love to hear from you!
