Cloudy and Cool…

…after what on this end seemed like a great week. Always a sad time, but one that reminds you to look forward.

…but everything shoehorned in.
…after a nice morning. And, of course, rain day equals pizza day.
Over an inch of rain wins the bet Bubbas out of luck
The bet was less than halve an inch of rain or more. Bubba bet less he lost but the forest gained.

In other news, we had two visitors to the wood burning stove—bats—who were removed, though, unfortunately, a little too forcefully to insure their survival. Note to bats…we like you but please stay out of the stove.
Perfect weather—wind moderate (but building) from south west. Calm here in the lee.

With tomorrow being a civic holiday, massive crowd around the falls parking area. Bumper to bumper, shoulder to shoulder, cheek by jowl. Kagawong is on the map.
Lots of sun. Very dry. Gulls cruising overhead in search of shadflies. Perfect weather for going to the dump, and for swimming. Thanks to Mimi’s efforts the elusive big old anchor was found and tagged.

From chill and clouds and wind to sunny and pleasant. Even managed to keep the swim streak unbroken.
Some rumblings off and on, including now. But not enough moisture to dampen the laundry on the line.
Heading to Pinebox for dinner.
Bunchberries are edible; ant lions are cold blooded killers—but we do have an excess of ants.
