Just after sunset
Sunset today was 4:59 p.m.
Bob on the front porch, Bear in the yard.
I stopped a work session at 4:30 so I could get us all outside for a time before it got dark. …priorities, you know!
Some clear sky to the East, gray to the West, beautiful in the front yard…just after sunset.
Al Fresco in Montana in November
This morning as I sat in the quiet of the start of the day…it was softly snowing.
(the faint “squiggles” behind and under the branches are the falling snow…wide open lens makes the squiggles :) )
Off and on…light flurries.
A soft scattering of snow.
Not everyone likes to be outside using the grill when it is snowing…
I guess I am not everyone.
Lunch…al fresco…in Montana…in November.
No snow here
The storm and the snow ????
Except for one brief squall yesterday (Thursday)…nada!
Bear and I took a quick run to the garbage dump and a walk down the road…about 4:45 this afternoon (Friday).
That’s it…snow up high, above 6000 feet I think – my house is about 3300.
No snow here.
P.S. The brunt of the storm went/is south of me. It IS cold at 26F and feels colder as the dew point is 19, i.e. the humidity is relatively high which equals cold to the bone….brrr!
Falling back
It is “Fall back” time here in the United States: Set the clocks back an hour and change the batteries in smoke and Co2 detectors…DONE!
Here at the Casa Summers we have brand new Co2 detectors. They talk. They say if it is smoke or co2 and they tell us to leave the house for fresh air.
Bear believes. When I tested the new detectors, his ears went back and he came to me and flicked his nose to the door – his signal to go outside.
I think we are in good shape if there is ever a problem.
Meanwhile, “Fall back” day started clear with a moonlit, starry sky, but it has since clouded up and turned into a dark and dreary day. No matter. We have done all errands and are in for the week end.
Falling back.
