It is the time of year for all things pumpkin, but that’s old hat, like the deer hunting hats being seen, yes 24/7, all over while they are still in a current mode. More timely is the fact that Kwik Trip just opened their North Hudson store, the most important thing of consequence to the north of the existing local shops, after several days of somewhat glaring, yes orange, bold lighting to announce their likely to be primo local presence that is spilling over all the turn-lane infrastructure. It was installed in large part to benefit their sure-to-change-the-local-scene-presence as far as a player in the market. So back to pumpkins. If you hurry north, as its still for a bit the grand opening, and you can still get on special a fantastic cup of pumpkin spiced brew, also with cinammon, brown sugar and vanilla. And many kinds of brew for free, and even a brave brown pumpkin mix that’s big in the cooler, again for a limited time, although even after its less than a buck. These things are highlighted by the fact that there are many, many bottles of sweetner to add to the experience, even though what we’re assuming was an added pumpkin mix seemed to be sold out at times. Must be good. And also a coupon for free milk! Don’t forget to factor in the Kwik Trip special of bananas, potatoes and onions for only 28 cents per pound, and being offered as an added incentive is a free first pound of those things, although of the three, the banana part is still coming. Once here, could you dip that banana in the pumpkin coffee for one more, quasi-tropical flavor in our northwoods.
Pumpkin, pumpkin, who has the pumpkin, and more than just pie: Let the bright lights extend you out of the Big City to the new Kwik Trip in NH

- Drop by drop, taking a big step. One Drop Refillery lets you refill, over and over, a plethora of non-toxic household liquid and dry good products in a single stop, and not always buy new and often plastic containers that fill up landfills, or even oceans. A passion for nature, you can drop in or order other ways. Two Hudson locations (see end of post for addresses.)
When walking down Second Street in Hudson, you may have seen a sign in a doorway saying One Drop Refillery, and like me thought it was a distillery, like a new place to have a drink. That would not fill the bill. Rather, this new shop that’s like a small mill, as in a dispensary, but quickly grew into featuring much more though related goods, reduces one of your steps and will be a first step toward saving the environment. It’s tucked inside the north half of a long existing photography studio by Lisa Buth and being what the former name says, it’s...
- Whether good witch of the north or east, or wicked witch of the south or west, there are treats galore as you walk the varied directions of Hudson’s streets, stopping at stores galore in this the former small business crawl. It leads off a pre-Halloween weekend with a lot to do, and see the Brew CRew too.
The pre-Halloween haunts are now hanging out their hat, and their head if they still have one, to harangue you, with a Witch’s Night Out — warlocks are apparently out of luck, although they can walk the street beside you, though she just might pass you by — on Thursday, Oct. 22, when things and heads really start rolling. (I was caught in a burning ring of fire, the circling flames lift my smoldered hat higher. Then rims settled for grab globs by Godiva, so she came a horseback witch attired.) So this is a night not only of bad lyricism and sometimes...
- ALL hALLOWS alert: For more on what to do in this last full weekend before Halloween, starting with THURSDAY, and One Drop at the Refillery, see the lead post shown in the latest dispatches heaDING below. —– Strolling the streets of not Soho in the sunshine, bothering beauties at streetlights, a-chipping heads off rattlesnakes and lighting up eels orbs in the direction of their land holes … All in a hot day’s, cool night’s work — could be Kid Rock — with mild-sauce, hot-pink-dress dreaming, and circling toward Mars and an art night with that drumming Replacement.
To all you true blue followers, hope you enjoy the following run-on expanse as humorous and very warped and a little redneck. It is all true, except for the dream part, which was dreamt. Welcome to Halloween early! Drank a couple of energy drinks, no Monster, and pulled an all-nighter typing somewhat late-dropped-into-my-lap advertorials and carried on my sleeplessness into the next morning and afternoon, all the while walking around the downtown and delivering draft copies and even picked up another assignment, one that could go boo in the night, say what is so. Was at the light by Agave and for some...
- Buddy, can you please spare me a can opener? Since mine doesn’t work. Again. So you can ‘spin’ it this way: The truisms of life today, in the USA, so many of them, can come down to the fact that a can opener tells all, coming full circle. That does, and the fact that its Octoberfest time, but so many seasons have still not arrived, even though it’s very near mid-terms, for both pupils and politicians at the polls.
It’s roughly mid-October in a roughly MAGA America and how is your rough life going? (Seems like early November, but only politically, not as far as the mal-adjusted seasons.) Well I’ll tell you about mine, thank you. And roughly. Halloween haunts — got to find some extra dough for candy and costumes for the kids and myself, more and more obligatory for adults, but all I have is some spare change, can you please bum me a dime? — are already becoming reality in our everyday lives. Note use of the word “everyday.” Master of Reality? Black Sabbath nailed it...
- I’ll say it, and play it, again. And again. Pick one for how fast you can pick. With fingers or using a pick. How many notes per second on a guitar? This is real world, not guitar hero. So I asked a veteran blues man, sitting next to me at the music club. And that’s just for starters. —– PLay it again Sam; though a chore for the door and out on the floor, Halloween decor and more is now roaring in.
How fast can you swing the axe? Ask the axe-man not on stage but sitting next to you. Bar math can be fun, as I’ve said many a time, but especially when it’s coming from a decades-long blues man. Imagine going to a bar to have a drink, or two, and then end up talking to a musician about how many more (notes) than that he can play a second! Try five or maybe six. Off to Hudson Tap, and tapping into the knowledge of a guy older than I who is a veteran blues man, mostly — and I...
- Oops, I did it again! I yes slipped up, as did Facebook, on teasing my last couple of posts. So read well past the two headline(s), down below, to get the whole football picture and put it on your grid, Facebook aside …
Thou protesteth too much?!? That be me. Computer geek? Can’t see. Omniscient? I am not He. If you are reading my attempted Facebook teaser, it was supposed to be All About The Football, or even futbal, in freeze frame or infinite loop, but that Alleged Giant, of social media, clipped off the wording top and bottom, front and back, fore and aft, day and night, (that last part is important), then sent the post anyway, a yammering of names! I tried to fix it, and must own up to my own part, but I was just shown more ads. I...
