Here's that rain we were promised :) wet and 58F.

Cool and breezy, 64F, with a mostly grey sky but still no sign of the promised rain.

No audiobook today as I was catching up with Colin in NH :)

Wednesday, September 28, 2016

Soon to be wet Wednesday

Cool and overcast, 62F, and it's been looking like rain most of the afternoon (I spent the morning cleaning all the gutters at the church in anticipation), though none yet. Apparently it's going to rain most of the night and tomorrow- good thing, we really need it!

Sir Tristram gets smitten and then does some smiting of his own.

Sir Tramtrist runs afoul of his girlfriend's mother!

Monday

What a beautiful day! Late sun, a nice breeze and 70F. Today is the first time in ages we've done the long loop comfortably without being drenched in sweat at this point :)

Taking a break from King Arthur and listening to Tubular Bells- which I haven't heard in forever but was reminded of by The Exorcist on TV the other day :)

Sunday

Lovely fall day- sunny, a gentle breeze and 65F.

We survived the brunch and we're just out for a quick walk before heading over to celebrate Jody's birthday.

Skyping with mum and dad :)

Saturday afternoon


Back in the right part the woods; the construction barriers are still up but, as it's the weekend, I could park in the office building across the street's lot.

I've escaped from the craziness of the nursery school touch-a-truck fair for a little while, and it's s nice day- sunny and 70F.

No book today as I've been having a nice chat with my brother via Skype :)

Thursday, September 22, 2016

Thursday

Quite a nice day, 82F but clear and pleasant.

Sir Gareth comes upon the castle of the Brown Knight and the 30 ladies- I'm assuming he will prevail as he's been smiting and running through pretty much everyone he's come across so far ;)

Wednesday, September 21, 2016

Wednesday

A little more sun today, and a tad less humid, but still warm, 83F.

News of Sir Gareth's exploits reach King Arthur.

Tuesday, September 20, 2016

Sir Lancelot saves Sir Meliot.

Saturday, September 17, 2016

Saturday

Lots of families out in the woods today, and why not? it's a lovely day :)

Sunny with an occasional breeze and 74F. It's quite surprising how many leaves have already fallen, probably because it's been so dry.

Sir Lancelot and the knights with white shields.

Friday with the 7Dii


And another version of todays picture from the 7Dii, an HDR composite of 3 shots.

Another lovely day, 71F and clear :)

No book today as I'm taking advantage of my day off to come out for a leisurely stroll with my camera to enjoy the peace and quiet after a fairly crazy week at work ;)

Saturday, September 10, 2016

Friday, September 9, 2016

Still very hot (88F) and I fear it's not going to cool off much before the festivities this Sunday.

Arthur weds Guinevere and the white hart appears.

Thursday, September 8, 2016

Thursday

I know I said today was going to be another day on the leash, but Holly looked at me so plaintively I couldn't not come to the woods. But just the short loop and no tennis ball.

Hot and sticky, sunny and 87F.

Balin has many adventures.

Tuesday, September 6, 2016

Tuesday

Cool and quite breezy, 77F, but getting more humid again. I guess this is all were going to get off the great storm that wasn't :)

More Arthurian legend... but I'll tell you something- Merlin is a bit of an ass. He loves to pop up and yell some knight "ooh, you shouldn't have done that, now 3 kingdoms will suffer for 12 years because of what you did". Douche. You couldn't have said that before?

Monday, September 5, 2016

Labor Day

Cool and overcast, 69F, but very little wind, though that's supposed to change.

Balin draws the sword.

Friday, September 2, 2016

Friday


About the same as yesterday as we wait for the tropical storm to come up the coast, 78F.

Many wonderful responses to our announcement yesterday- feeling very supported :)

Still on music. I'm considering a reading of Le Morte d'Arthur, but not sure if I'm up for 37 hours of Arthurian legend ;)

It's a girl!

Didn't get here yesterday what with going to look at Robyn's house and all sorts of other things, but I dropped mum and dad at the airport early this morning and hopefully they had a good flight. The big reveal was today and so far we're blown away by all the incredibly positive reactions we're getting:)

Warm and a bit humid, but overcast, 75F.
