Seemed like a good idea at the time
Good Thanksgiving Day morning to my Trailhead friends! From down south... in southern New Hampshire.
The family has just returned from participating in the annual 5K Turkey Trot, sponsored by the Greater Derry Track Club.
While most ran the route around pretty Beaver Lake, we walked some and jogged some (my well-used knees don't need any more pounding!). And finished a respectable 400th something out of 400-something.
With the day's outdoor exercise in the bag, and the turkey in the oven, I have to time to bother you.
So what's up?
Not much you say.
Hey, have you heard the big news?
Two Einsteins up in New Sharon decided to make off with a couple cases of beer from a delivery truck.
The good stuff. Old Mill and PBR.
Implementing their well-thought-out escape plan they sped off, then doubled back past the store where the theft took place. Apparently so folks there could get a good second look at the car and their plate number.
Brilliant.
Within 20 minutes police caught up with the beer perps at a local home, the canned loot right there in the open in the dooryard.
When asked why they did it one of the men replied that he "thought it was a good idea at the time."
Guess you would, when your IQ is roughly equivalent to the alcohol content of the beer you ripped off.
Hmmm, speaking of beer, I do believe that's my brother (and today's turkey chef) coming towards me with the day's first adult beverage. How can I refuse such hospitality?!
Hope you all get lots of good eating and family-ing in. Time to relax. Much to be thankful for, for sure.
Maybe see you on the ski slopes later this weekend.
What's going on where you are today? This weekend?
