... and merge with the sky.

Unknown said...: That, Madame, is a wintry looking sky. Getting chill up your way?

When I was a pedestrian, I did that a lot. You do begin to understand what inspired some of the cloudscapes in those florid paintings of the 18th and 19th centuries.

PS Nice you can take some time off to unwind.; 10/12/10, 6:21 PM

The day begins
And just like that
The sun goes down

I thought that shot was done today. Only reason I said what I did, I thought it might be another look at our weather 2 days from now.; 10/12/10, 8:25 PM

Whoa, look out - a little brown bat!; 10/12/10, 8:25 PM

Chip Ahoy said...: My keyboard is spooked. Yesterday it typed British £ for #, although I could get a # by using option + 3, which is the ordinary way to get £. So I took the keyboard off American and put it on British and now it's back to behaving like an American keyboard. I do not understand this sudden reversal.; 10/12/10, 9:12 PM

Thank you, sir. The Blonde has terrible headaches when it rains and, since she broke her foot, that gives her trouble, too. A couple of days' warning allows her to medicate and minimize the effects.
