Flip it!

On this day June 27th in between mitn drinnen, we’ll stop at the pitch and putt in our local Calaveras County. We’ll be careful to watch for the jumping frogs as it is their high season.

With dejavu on our breath we’ll turn up the radio that is set to Cousin Brucie on our local WABC Am. The top is down on our new yellow mustang, saddle interior convertible. Our hair (what is left of it) blows in the late summer breeze ( which makes us feel fine.) We add some metal to the pedal.

We will sing along to the catchy phrases “in the village the mighty village The Lion Sleeps tonight.”

“In this whole world, you can love but one girl. Let me be that one girl. For I’ll be true to you. End quote. Loud shout out to our Devoted Soldier Boys. G-d Bless You.

We heard they added some new holes at the aptly named Periwinkle Pitch and Putt. One hole is named after Mark Twain and one named after Shania. We are thinking maybe his great niece. We’ll try their new chili dogs, curly fries and awful awfuls. For dessert we add a peppermint stick (a la Howard Johnsons) ice cream cone and call it a near perfect walk down memory lane.

As we wake up and wait to hear what devastating news is in the core of our arena, we thank G-d one of our nearest and oh so dearest made it home safely from Israel. Welcome home LHG.

Amidst access to weapons readily available to children, we will double down on prayers as memories of better days trickle down our faces couched in tears.

The days when the alarm system in our house (who had those growing up?)- didn’t go off because armed villains were coming into our safe haven to steal our black and white T.V.’s we watched Bonanza and Columbo on let alone our Lives.

So just for today, pick up a T.V. Guide and look to see what time Gene Rayburn is hosting The Match Game on NBC. Have a great weekend.
