So, things didn’t go according to plan yesterday. First of all, I intended to have the house open and enjoying fresh air and a nice breeze.

Nothing, absolutely nothing, isContinue reading “The Best Laid Plans…”

October Morning
I managed to get this shot of the sun starting to peek through the trees along the creek before 8 am this morning.

Most of what I do in the way of driving is 4 miles into town, puttering around in town, with an occasionalContinue reading “Did You Know?”
