| What a gorgeous evening. It was balmy, pretty and it felt great to be back on the bike. |
 | ||
| We didn't go far, only about an hour and half as we didn't get started till after 5, BUT it was so worth going. The leaves are just starting to turn and with the sun setting over them, it proved to be a beautiful ride! Yep, Life Is Good! :) |
 |
| I am so NOT saying goodbye to summer! What a absolutely gorgeous day on the Susquehanna! Life really is good! :) |
 |
| .... and this is what a soggy Charlie looks like after getting caught in today's rain. Um, I didn't look much better! :) |
 |
| City Sunset Taken from the Ben Franklin Bridge. A bridge that I definitely plan on going back to soon! :) |
 |
| Rednecking My dear ole neighbor died a number of years ago, but before his death, he repaired a broken window in his garage. I was laughing with his wife earlier at his redneck repair job. Erika, ya gotta love Dieter & his ingenuity! :) Oh and Erika, MOUSE number 5 this morning!!! |
 |
| You better believe I paddled way over to the side when this thing went by. It looked bigger from the kayak than it does here, LOL |
 |
| My Zoey with not a care in the world UNLESS she hears the word SHRIMP!!! Ever see a cat fly? :) |
 |
| If one kicks their shoes off before hosing a porch down, so they don't get their shoes wet, MAKE sure that person moves the said shoes well AWAY from the said porch before turning the hose on! :) |
 |
| A few more pics from the High Bridge |
 |
| It's the best bridge for sunsets this time of year, it really is |
 |
| :) |
 | |
| After a crazy day, I needed to run to the grocery store, but instead decided to go to the High Bridge and watch the sunset. Therapy it is :) |
 | |
| What a absolute Picture Perfect Day! This was taken with my phone as we kayaked from Jane's Island down in the Chesapeake over to the sandy shores across from the island. It was about a hour of kayaking over and was it ever BEAUTIFUL!!! Thanks So Much Erika, for watching the rug-rats, so I could go. We all love ya :) |
 |
| I'm getting a new front porch. The wood was dropped off this morning for me to stain & seal. No prob, shouldn't take that long, WRONG!!! It's a lot slower going and more back breaking than I ever imagined. |
 |
| Dad's old sawhorses and back breaking problem solved thanks to 8 paint cans :) |
 |
| OMG, I was covered in the stuff and I'm only half done!!! It's what you call FUN! :) Oh Erika!! It twasn't a raccoon, it twasn't the skunks I saw earlier, but a possum!! I saw it's ugly face on the bench outside you door a little while ago. Oh AND I have another mouse. It's under my bookcase . I'm thinking I may have a mousey problem!! |
 |
| Um, there's one ugly chicken in that chicken coop |
 |
| 'Caught In The Coop' he was! |
 |
| All one needs to do is yell "Junior want some cookies' and out he runs! He's too funny. Won't be long now before he get's stuck in there as he's growing so fast. Just hope I'm there to see it :) |
 |
| Painted Skies Taken out the car window as we sped down the road at 70 and nope, I wasn't driving as I painting the sky! :) |
 |
| The cats camped out in front of my fridge ALL night! That means 1 thing and 1 thing only! This morning I shined a flashlight under it and Mickey finally took a run for it. I had a bag next to a chair, he ran under the that, the cats flew, I grabbed a rubbermaid container, moved the chair and slammed the container down catching the mouse. I then was stuck with a mouse in the container and 2 crazed cats. |
 |
| So what does one do then? I slid the container over till I could reach a box. I ripped off the end, slid it under the container, picked it up and turned it over, quickly stuck a lid on it, quickly got dressed and then drove the little guy to his new neighborhood down by the canal. |
 |
| Run Mickey Run! Happy Ending for all |
 |
| I'd just gotten in. I found 2 cats going nuts. I grabbed a flashlight and looked under the radiator in the living room. What do my wondering eyes see? How about a freakin' mouse with big sad eyes. The poor thing was shaking like a leaf. Damn, I ran outside and what jumps out of my can of bird seed? How about a Jurassic park sized raccoon! I near had a heart attack. Now I've got a mouse whose having a heart attack under my radiators, two cats salivating, me with my heart pounding and ..... I need to catch a mouse!!!!!! HELPPPPPPP |
 |
| Trying his damnedest to crawl under the radiator to get to poor Mickey |
 |
| I gave up! The mouse has since disappeared and the cats? They're still laying right where you see them, still salivating and still hoping! :) |
 |
| I LOVE clouds |
 |
| They put on quite a show for us as we drove home last night |
 |
| Here we are on the PA turnpike. The sky just got better as if it was telling us a story |
