Reopening the Pharmacy

My father's father was a pharmacist. He had a small pharmacy and soda fountain in Collingswood New Jersey. During the school year my grandparents ran their pharmacy. But when summer rolled around, my grandparents closed their store and headed for Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony. For the entire summer my father and his parents would listen to classical music. When the season ended, my grandparents packed up and headed back to New Jersey to reopen their pharmacy.

I have no doubt that my grandparents lost customers over the summer. But my grandparents considered it a worthwhile tradeoff -- cultural and spiritual fulfillment in exchange for customer attrition. I am afraid I have no such grandiose excuse for failing to blog over the summer (here's what I did this summer). None of the cultural or spiritual fulfillment, all of the reader attrition. But, like my grandfather, I'm returning from the summer feeling recharged and look forward to blogging with greater frequency. Thanks for hanging in there with me.

Welcome back! Great story.

It is interesting to look back at those aspects of our world that have seemed to disappear. While it is not always possible to "go back", people often fail to see how we can "re-capture" some of the better aspects of the "old ways". So many people seem to think that there are only two choices: old or new. I think we can have the best of both.

I look forward to your return to blogging. Maybe you'll try some videoblogging too. Everything you need to know to put video in your blog can be found at http://freevlog.org. Hope you give it a try.

Then I end up on the basin to put some tap water.Start cleaning the vibram , I first ビブラム wet.Then, I use a scrub brush back and forth on the edge of the fivefingers .The edge of the shoe is still relatively easy to brush the mud, but the shoe side of the dirt is more difficult to wash away.They do not want hanging around is to move about the body.
