She got a brief mention on the Weather Channel here this morning, and the track they seemed to be projecting didn't look as if she was likely to head our way, but you never know with these things: it only seems to take a little nudge in wind direction to send them scurrying up the coast to us ...
Either way, I hope you'll all be safe and well, and your houses will still be where you left them. ![[Votive]](graemlins/votive.gif)

I see one neighbor with shutters up, but only on the bigger windows. The others are open to the air! I'll probably get my orchids in, just so a stray gust doesn't send them through a window or smashed on the ground.
Yesterday we had a big thunder-boomer and there was a possible tornado just a mile or so west of me. I remember hearing a funny sound during the storm. It took down big boughs from a venerable sunburn tree and had so many palm fronds on the road that I was looking for Jesus on a donkey!

What has happened that this has gone unposted on for a whole freaking MONTH?
Up at night late typing as everybody else snores. We are in possession of one absolutely gorgeous 14 week old puppy who has teeth like a shark and the personality of a two-year-old on coffee. She was given to us as a Chihuahua mix, but then again this is the same community which gave us a "rare Vietnamese jungle fowl" which turned out to be a good old American rooster, so..
The vet says she'll be 50 lbs and is probably mostly pitbull.
The internet puppy calculators say she'll be 20 lbs or so and is possibly staffy or pit bull mixed with ??? Me, I'm hoping they didn't totally lie about the Chihuahua bit. We have no way of tracking down the original giver to see what Mama looks like or how big she is.
She looked like this though a bit older when we got her. Google images just conked out on me, so I can't show you what she looks like older, but it's more deerlike than the standard pit bull. She doesn't have big feet either.
I'm mildly perturbed by the thought of a 50 lb dog with a whacking long tail knocking everything off the tables and shelves all winter long!
-------------------- Er, this is what I've been up to (book). Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down!

Eagles and Turkeys...one of our favorites has died.
Ozzie and Harriet have raised several broods of eaglets under our watchful eyes here. Ozzie was injured (hit by a train?) a few months ago, and tried to go back to Harriet when he recovered. A younger, handsome stranger had been keeping company with her and apparently took offense at Ozzie's return.
Poor old Ozzie was badly injured and died Tuesday night. We will miss him.
Last week, I saw two eagles soaring over one of our main highways. Perhaps it was Harriet and Handsome Stranger?
Good luck with your puppy, LC!!

Thank you! So sad about the iggle. We have an eagle rehabilitation place within walking distance--I confess to hoping my son decides to help them out for his Scout Eagle project, because then they show up at the Court of Honor with a live eagle in tow. ![[Yipee]](graemlins/spin.gif)

This might sound lame, but do you think we owe them a group condolence card? Ozzie was such a prescence around here...

I don't think it sounds lame at all. I guess it's a matter of which recipient? CROW does a magnificent job of rehabilitating wildlife (including Ozzie), the family that owns the property where the eagle nest is located has done a true service to us all by maintaining the eagle cam, and of course, there are all of us who have cared. We watched eggs hatch and eaglets fledge, and watchful eagle parents caring for and feeding their young.
But, yes, a very compassionate thought!

I wonder if any bookworms among you on your side of the pond can help me remember the name of a book that I was sent. It's about a man who tends people's yards, and who has a passion for mazes and labyrinths. I thought it was called the Lawnmower man, but this turns out to be a completely different book/film.

I may be way off, but your description reminds me of the book by Canadian author, Carol Shields. It is called, "Larry's Party". A description is found here. [ 20. October 2015, 22:03: Message edited by: lily pad ]

Happy Rain Dance, Some trees we hear are still smoldering from valley forrest fire so this first good rain makes us all feel a lot safer. The down side is some people who lost their homes are still camping out in tents and we have been told to expect flooding in heavy rain, as ground cover has burned away.
I am blessed to be high and dry with a roof over my head, as fire stopped 30 yards from my front door, but my heart hurts for friends and neighbors who have lost so much.
Some moments I can forget about the fire, then I drive down the street and it all comes back. No doubt a bit of survivors remorse going on here.

I had a unique traffic experience today. I was driving to Lewisburg,WV to attend a 2 PM memorial service. I've driven there often before, and it normally takes me an hour and three quarters. I figured if I left home at noon, I would have plenty of time. I was unpleasantly surprised.
All of the WV part of the trip is made on route 219. It is a well-designed and maintained mountain road. However, it is a mountain road with narrower lanes and one lane each way. Normally, if you get behind something slow, you will be able to pass it sooner or later. Today there was a very wide house trailer being hauled from one place to another. It was much wider than our lane of the road. The driver drove in the middle of the road except when there was oncoming traffic; then he moved over just enough to let the other vehicles past. There was no way the vehicles behind could pass him. The speed limit most of the way was 55; his speed ranged from 20 to 35, except when he came to a sharp curve, when he would slow down to less than 5. He was in front of me for approximately twenty-five miles.
Instead of arriving at 1:45, I got there at 2:10. Fortunately the service didn't start for another five minutes, so I wasn't late.
The whole business was a very frustrating experience.

Moo, I felt so much frustration for you as I read what you had to go through. You would think the driver would have turned off on occasion to allow the parade behind him to go past. I'm glad you did get to your destination in time.

The cast were from the American Shakespeare Company's theater in Staunton. It was very gripping.

I was just looking at their website yesterday! I was trying to see if there was anyway to get there to see Henry V from Washington, DC, when I visit there next spring. (I won't have a car, so apparently there isn't.)

The theater in Staunton is wonderful. It's the world's only facsimile of the Blackfriars theater. The stage projects much farther forward than modern stages It helps the actors interact with the audience, which they do frequently.

I'll have to get there some time -- I've heard wonderful things about it. I love the way the actors use the thrust stage at the London Globe to interact with the Groundlings.

Yes! I'll be there with a group from Road Scholars (formerly Elderhostel), but I'm hoping it works out that I can stay a couple days afterwards. I had been hoping to suggest a Shipmeet once I know more details.

Today three Tech students came and raked all my leaves. They belong to a group that does yard work for free, but accepts checks made out to the Cancer Society.
They are a spinoff from the Relay for Life. They would rather do some sort of practical work instead of walking around a track.
I'm very glad they feel that way. Whenever I need any help with yard work, I get in touch with them.

That's a great idea, Moo.
When I moved here, i rented a truck and two strapping teenagers from sons' church did almost all the heavy work.
After they had finished , i went to pay them and they refused. Son then explained it was for their youth group fund which went to help disadvantaged young people who came to youth group. In that area, there was no shortage of kids who could benefit from the scheme. I already knew a fair market price for their job and paid them that, to their surprise.

The American community here in our town in Kenya gathered today for a big feast at lunchtime but I had to work so am now waiting for my husband to come home and we'll have pretzels and white wine as a token offering. Will try to talk to my family later on Skype
Hope you all have fun ![[Yipee]](graemlins/spin.gif)

We had a thoroughly delightful Thanksgiving here! For the first time ever, there was no bird in the oven, but ribeyes and salmon on the grill. Cleanup and prep were easier, but there is no carcass for soup.

We had a thoroughly delightful Thanksgiving here! For the first time ever, there was no bird in the oven, but ribeyes and salmon on the grill. Cleanup and prep were easier, but there is no carcass for soup.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Here is a hint for cooking salmon which you may not know.
I don't know what you call it at your neck of the woods, but place the salmon on a piece of baking paper, parchment or whatever, before you place it on grill. This works for grill with bars or a flat surface or a frying pan etc. skin will still brown or go crunchy. Cooking time is the same. When done to your liking, pick up edges of paper to remove or take fish off with an egg slice etc.
No fishy mess to clean off whatever you used to cook it.. Brilliant.
