George, that's a wicked bad Lambchop song. But the Grandaddy's not bad, as far as Grandaddy goes.
Me, I've got about 50% pretty darn good stuff this week.
Yeah, not a very good Lambchop song indeed. Not a Grandaddy fan?
I hope Maine was great--I assume you're back in PA since you're posting. Let me know when you get the covers CDs.
I like Grandaddy. Well enough. I dunno, they can be annoying.
Yes, we're back. God it's beautiful up there. But we went too far into the boonies for good -- make that great -- food. The Acadia peninsula is apparently the cutoff for exceptional food. There were some competent places, places that tried. And I gave them credit for that. But there were many truly awful places. It was a great relief, foodwise, to get back to Portland.
I had to cancel at my beloved Primo, in midcoast Rockland, ME, because of bad timing. But I got my skate anyway, the next night at Portland's Fore Street Grill, which was absolutely freaking out of this world fantastic on the actual anniversary night. God, what a place. 555 the next night was exquisite too, although we had to rush to get two courses in and make it to the airport.
I want to move to Maine. As I say, it's gorgeous. And life is too short not to live near a few exceptional restaurants.
Now that I'm sated on skate I'm dreaming of a 555 stewed duck tartlet...
(Oh, I'll send out my mix CD if you've sent yours. And I'll join that other thing you invo-ed me for. I'm way behind on my life right now.)
