Welcome to, Salutations from,  Obi Wan Can'obie Layke Park Google Blog,

the one blog in billions that dares to tell it like it is for all one of you dedicated Dear Readers,

 and to recap this month of,

L - O - V - E, in photographs and captions, types of...

Romantic, Platonic,

Obi Wan Can'obi Layke Pahrk, Das Mann, & Jeffie the Pooh;

Brotherly, of Outdoors Fellowship,

T'Bone, Lil Paul, & Jeffie;

New, Preowned Books, Bukowski, Burroughs, Kerouac,

Raven Books, No'hampton MA, Can Obi & Das;

Self, and Higher Power,

Self Proclaimed Short Attention Span Poet, King of Poetry, and Shrine;

because, not only is it the Month of L - O - V - E,

it is also the beginning of that All Time Christian Favorite,

Lent, when, after partying down in New Orleans on Fat Tuesday,

Mardi Gras!

One Gives Up something for 40 days and nights,

in remembrance of, J. C, going out into the wilderness to fast and pray

prior to His ultimate arrest for crimes against the church state, and

execution on the cross,

thank God He wasn't hung by the neck until dead,

Christians would be wearing a little gallows around their necks,

imagine the image of a Catholic Cathedral with a big, hung, Savior

at the forefront of the sanctuary...

and would His neck be scarred at resurrection?

However, be that as it may, we prefer the Fish Symbol...with legs...ourselves.

In this time of Lent, DaBCo is proud to present,

Lennie Paperwhite,

And what about, Saint V's Day?

What did our two intrepid travelers do for that most romantic of weekends?

DAY ROAD TRIP!

To No'ampton Mass,

to stroll the sunny main street and poke around in Turn It Up, used records, tapes, and CD's,

Raven new & used Books, Shop Therapy, head and porno/sex shoppe,

and other local establishments to peruse their wares,

breathing deep the chilly breeze;

an' den...

late lunch/early supper, in downtown Chicopee, Mass, at...

Munich Haus,

Restaurant, Bar, & Banquet Hall

Authentic German Fare,

house made sausages, giant pretzels, schnitzel, and other goodies

Das Mann, side and main entrance;

Obi Wan, main entrance, Das in entryway;

perusing the board of fare and house made potato crisps;

Das & 1/2 litre medium Spaten Draught Bier, he's gonna drink that!?!?

"Deutsche Black Forest Coffee with cream and sugar, I'm the designated driver."

Coffee, German French Onion Soup, Giant Pretzel, Lentel Soup, crisps, all house made.

Lunch Menu Schnitzel Platter, Mushroom/wine gravy, mustard sauce, and marinara,

with spaetzle  and red sauerkraut; that's a lot 'o' food,

he shoulda got the kiddie menu platter.

Pretzel Chicken w/mustard sauce, butternut squash, and giant pretzel remnants,

"I can't believe I ate the whole thing!"

Das Mann, was a good ginger buoy, ate half the serving,

and took a VIP Bag home for later.

Time to go, we're feelin' ok...

and our road day trippers head off for, Hadley Downtown,

only to be let down, it caused a frown,

so they headed down thru the Pioneer Valley neighborhood,

and the scenery was frightfully good,

and their pouts turned upside down.

that evening,

they exchanged little tokens of affections,

featuring this pome...

Saint's Holy Day Dilemma:

"How about that burger joint?" "No."

"What about that Pizza Place?" "No."

for Das Mann

Das Mann an' Loretta, in comfy seats

drive aimlessly 'round urban streets

hungry for something, anything, but...

they can't agree on place, or what,

suggestions of many fantastic eats.

Suggestions of many fantastic eats

not one excites paramours taste-buds

into stomach nausea floods,

until miraculous feat of feats,

an establishment for which heart beats.

An establishment for which heart beats,

a sincere smile always greets,

all are welcome laid back feel,

and authentic home cooked meal,

where culture and conversation meets.

Where culture and conversation meets

nary a mile to aimlessly roam,

at kitchen table in their own home,

enjoying tag-team chefs prepared treats,

Das Mann an' Loretta in comfy seats.

It don't matter where they eats...

as long as they're together, they're where

they need to be.

Loretta and Das Mann,

Salisbury Beach, wind whipped & foamin'.

Wow, that was quite a trip!

Let's take it down a notch and wrap up this lengthy entry with a parting shot

Black History Month Moment,

here now is the DaBCo Dead Poet in Residence,

Langston Hughes,

Song for a Dark Girl

Way Down South in Dixie

(Break the heart of me)

They hung my black young lover

To a cross roads tree.

Way Down South in Dixie

(Bruised body high in air)

I asked the white Lord Jesus

What was the use of prayer.

Way Down South in Dixie

(Break the heart of me)

Love is a naked shadow

On a gnarled and naked tree.
