At the Beach --- now that the season is over --- the lifeguard station rebuild is being completed. Beach stones are piled like the stacks in the distance. Fat raccoons roam the gardens still loading up for the winter.
Back at Kemble a day started with fog but cleared up with sunshine in dramatic rays, like those old devotional calendar pictures. A rare visitor crawling on the shed turned out to be a hickory tussock moth caterpillar.
Cooler weather allows for yard work like mowing and tree pruning. But the chainsaw got dull at a bad time and this ash tree was left leaning like that tower of pizza in Italy.
What do you give a guy who has everything but lives in a cold shack in the woods? How about a few cords of firewood to help warm up the place? Happy Birthday, Wally!
It's the first day of autumn but our spirits fall with a very frustrating and angry-making situation in Toronto. A former tenant has used a recent legalism to prevent us from moving back upstairs. The sign is gone and we can't rent either unit. We are considering all options but we are stuck in limbo in our own house. Very very aggravating. Just as the sun rises every day, will we get over this somehow...?
