The Coffee House

[Gary A.]

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. Presently it is 62F but should break 80F by the afternoon. No frost here or mugginess ... just good ol' fashion nice weather. High school football game tonight, Wednesday Mary Lou and Gary watched Antigone Now, a modernized version of the Greek classic. It was surprising good. Most of the weekend will be spent putting the yard back together and working out some new landscaping ideas as there is a lot of bare dirt where the roses used to be. Mary Lou thinks herbs and stuff, lavender, rosemary and thyme on the bottom. Maggie and Gary are off on a walk.

Happy Friday, hosers!

It's October here at last...stupendous weather, cool temps and warm sun. Still have some stubborn hummingbirds at the feeder. I thought they'd take the hint when the hurricane blew through that it was time to migrate on.

Going to be a glorious night on the deck. Last night was so crisp and clear the Milky Way looked like a solid rainbow of stars across the sky.

Happy Friday!

I had to put on a coat today, chilly. I found an exposed roll of TriX in the coat pocket from last year. I'm pretty sure it's from the Air Museum. I could have sworn I misplaced one, never thought to look in the useless cell phone pocket. Kind of jonesing to develop it. I recall I took some on a tripod but not for certain, have to check my journal. I think I used my Nikon FM and a nifty 50 plus the 50-135. I kind of recall going crazy looking for a roll of film last year... the suspense is killing me... they probably suck though, I've shot digital there and the lighting was horrible.

Us Californians call them Adirondack as well. These have built in feet rests which tuck under the seat.

Those are comfy to sit but not easy to get out of after a couple of margaritas. Theoretically of course...


Gary tonight at 11 ET MLB network has a special on the 1988 Dodgers narrated by Bryan Cranston.

I taped it, I am going to watch it eventually. I laughed my ars off on his One Man MLB show a few years ago, it was brilliant.

They just said we may have a frost here on Sunday No more mosquitoes!

Seeiously! I got bitten a few days ago. In October. In New York. Totally unacceptable!! Bastards need to die already!

I can't even describe how happy I was with the weather today. I finally got to wear tights and boots, and I even needed a jacket and scarf. Sooooo happy!

We hates summer forever!

Ohhhh, tights and boots....now yer talkin'.

Here? Wayyyy,wayyy west coast? Lovely autumn days. Foggy in the mornings in low-lying areas near the Willamette and Columbia Rivers, then from about 8 AM onward, beautiful blue-sky days, not a cloud in the sky, temps in the low 70's. Trees turning gold and yellow and red. A wonderful time of the year.

Coming over the mountain from town yesterday in the middle of a sea of green forest was one single scarlet red tree. The sun was coming through the clouds just right that it had it's own spotlight. Maybe fall color is around the corner.

I was right, it is the air museum

Gary keeps teasing me with his TriTip and delightful foods, via text pics. Of course as I'm frying baloney in a pan.

Happy Saturday y'all.
Phone says it's mid 60s outside.
Feels like heaven.
Hope someone opens up right at 5am so I can give the floor what it needs.

Hey there is an art to properly frying baloney in a skillet. The line between to little an to much is very thin. It's like frying up Spam. It took many years at Deer Camp beside some of the great culinary masters to learn the proper technique.

Ok, just finished my fried baloney, egg, and cheese sandwich. Getting ready to slay the loading of 120 on a reel. Oh boy
