Sado-Domestics
May: spring has sprung, though it sure feels quite chilly still. By the end of this month the warmer weather should be returned (fingers crossed) or we might be sitting by fire pits, camp fires, or wood stoves. It’s New England. We live with it. This is the month we get to celebrate Memorial Day, brave souls lost fighting for our freedom while we grill, play volleyball, dive into the pool, and listen to really cool New England live music. Remember to celebrate New England’s live music scene in between going to all those pre-summer blockbuster movies that no longer do well at the box office. Enjoy.
