If only I had taken my camera
Went up a little earlier to check the mail and as I came back from the office, I looked up into the eastern sky to view a beautiful moon there and a jet plane flying directly above it from right to left (that would be south to north) -- what a beautiful sight and what a beautiful picture that would have been with a big pine tree just below it and some clear azure blue skies as a backdrop. Darn! Never know when such things can happen.
Now settling in as darkness overtakes everything (except that moon and the lights inside the RV), anticipating a chilly night in the 30s or low 40s so the heaters are already running to counter that. Tiger is settled in on the seat beside me and Molly is already in the bedroom after having their dinner. Guess mine will be salad and soup (New England Clam Chowder) with some warmed pieces of the last Blue cooked a few nights back -- maybe some popcorn a little later too and some chocolate candy bites as I watch a little TV.
I had Tiger outside with me this afternoon starting a little after 3:00 p.m. but, Molly didn't get the harness on so no outside time for her (only time in the open window or the screen door). I finished cleaning that trailer for those neighbors (Ida and Beth) after the temps got above 60 degrees here. It took about two more hours today and I finished around 2:45 p.m. -- included power-washing their picnic table too. First day that I have been able to wear shoes since breaking that little toe a few weeks ago (banged it again this morning against the heater on the floor in the kitchen). Made me think I needed shoes on and with smart wool socks too for the warmth -- all better now with the shoes off and the socks still on.
Nice to have that trailer done for those two women and I know they do appreciate it -- too bad Ida stepped on their telephone cable and broke the connection at the terminal box. May have to offer a hand on that tomorrow (between packing more things away and getting awnings pulled in).
I've been forgetting to mention that my early morning trips to the beach for fishing this week had provided a neat sight of the Palm trees with lights on them on A1A. They had vertical lines of lights running up the trunks and the bottom of the canopy had lights lining the edges -- really, really nice touch.

Before and After (North side) |
I've been forgetting to mention that my early morning trips to the beach for fishing this week had provided a neat sight of the Palm trees with lights on them on A1A. They had vertical lines of lights running up the trunks and the bottom of the canopy had lights lining the edges -- really, really nice touch.
After enjoying a couple beers outside with Tiger and soaking up the sunshine, I managed to get the Jeep organized and packed away the ladder and fishing gear -- removed the tie-downs on the patio awning and stowed everything except two chairs and the grille. Tomorrows work. Time for some dinner and maybe a glass of Sambuca (to kill the aches and pains).
