Interesting day. It rained last night but don't know how much because I've been letting the rain gauge be a mosquito nursery for the past couple of months and it is now worthless as a measuring tool. I'll spend tomorrow trimming, and maybe emptying a few things, and generally getting the pond set for the Winter.
Fed the animals but spent most of the day around my house. I turned 53 today and was just checking it out before taking the plunge back into life (science based caution, not paranoia). Mowed my yard, the pond perimeter and the berm - all systems a-okay; read part of a book - peak performance; had several conversations - all went well. It seems to fit perfectly and does feel great. "Gotta blast."
