The Coffee House

We made it home without any incidents. Roofers are here and working on one section at a time because of continued threat of rain.

Aging for me means uncharacteristic restraint in doing things that otherwise might injure, maim or kill me. It's a work in progress. Still, that inner gonzo still whispers, "What are you saving yourself for?"

A couple years ago, when I started fishing again, I went to a creek in western MD looking to get some fine brook trout. I used to cross the stream by walking across fallen logs, even with two or three meter drops.

This time I walked several meters back downstream until I found a place to step (very cautiously) on rocks to cross, then back up stream.

Being older also means that we can appreciate what a PITA an injury can be - worse if it's self-inflicted.

Happy Monday, hosers!

The neighbor's Speraea is in full bloom and stunning. I've been waiting until a nice sunny day, but all we have is rain and overcast. Hopefully it will stay in bloom for photos.

With the rainy days I've been busy with the water coloring projects. Picked up new brushes last week and brushes do make a difference. I've been watching tuts and reels. The artists make it look so easy

Oh, we have an azalea in the front of the house!

Want a challenge? Get a “kids” set, like a Crayola eight color set. The limited pallet can be fun. I found the brown they use has more of a red shift than I prefer so I add a little green.

Lazy Lobster is taking us to a folk music night in Portland. It should be fun.
