Semper Paratus

This is the motto of the U.S. Coast Guard who have their training station in Cape May, N.J. the seaside resort to which we returned at the end of the rental season. We spent the first day replacing light bulbs. After this strenuous activity it was time for happy hour but I was shocked to find that the only cork screw in the house was broken - there would be no wine tonight! True to the Coast Guard motto we fell back to plan B and settled for champagne with a popping cork. In light of this unsettling discovery this blogger will be out of pocket until after Labor Day.
