"For I am a Bear of Very Little Brain, and long words Bother me."

Ok.  I'm talking about Tracy, not Winnie, and we’ve had this discussion before.  Tracy is not to be trusted when out by herself.  While I was out doing my secondary snow-blowing thjis morning (paths to the sheds, back door of the house, etc), she said she was heading over to the Meat Shop to pick up some things.  Well – about two hours later (the Meat Shop is only three miles down the road), she arrives home with more than Meat Shop stuff.  When asked what she had done, she said “went shopping like I said I was”.  She forgot to mention that in addition to the Meat Shop, she also was going to the local Shaw’s. 
Short version – it meant that she was out longer than anticipated, was handling more weight that she should have been, and at the end of it all – forgot about a third of what it was that she was shopping for anyway. This, of course is necessitating a secondary trip – by me.  Ha.
The pic is actually of Tracy - you just can't see her face - she's looking towards the sunrise - which is about 75 miles away as the crow flies from the summit of Mount Washington - and is bundled up against the low temp (minus 20) and wind (about 50mph).  More at: http://bit.ly/g7mTfz, and I'll be adding more as I get them scanned over the next few weeks. If I ever find the negatives, I can get some non-scratch images uploaded. Someday..
