I don't see that everyday or ever. A coyote chased Stanley:Not my Cat onto the deck. I didn't like that experience. Stanley is fine and inside making Gracie angry. One shot fired into the dead tree behind the house seems to have cleared the woods.

The little brown bat that's been sleeping in my window is gone. It must've moved Into a tree or somewhere with better cover than a storm window and screen. See you next spring my bug eating companion.

My plan was brookside coffee this AM. Then I saw it is 58° inside and 28° outside,nope. The season of feeding the stove at 2am has arrived and I missed it last night,brrr. Sorry Gracie, I'm reclaiming the blanket. I'll be here sipping coffee if anybody needs me or wants to drop off breakfast.

Just sitting by the fire with my old chonky cat. Maybe I should drop the internet again and spend the winter writing. Ahhh, to be as happy as a kitty bathing and snoring in front of a fire.

Sometimes you gotta lay on the couch next to a fine lady and enjoy the evening....even if she snore/purrs like a freight train. I know, I still need to get her a blanket to lay on.

My inside wood is stacked,cabin cleaned,yard work done, and now a brookside beverage for sunset. It is currently 40°and a chill north wind is blowing.

The stream is almost at the correct depth. This is the most water since last spring. The sun is shining and it is a crisp 46° outside. A gorgeous autumn day in my part of Maine.
