From The Heights. #10

Good morning to everyone! As I look out the window this morning there is not much happening. It is a cloudy morning with a temperature of 59F (15C). We are supposed to get some showers and possible thunderstorms later today and tonight. Temperatures are supposed to stay quite nice until early next week.

Then there will be a noticeable change, downward change in temperature. But we will be entering the month of October so cooler weather is to be expected. Yesterday a friend of mine took me out around town a bit to get some pics of our streets. It was amazing at how many trees have lost their leaves already.

Some people do not like Virginia Creeper (a vine), but it is great for covering a chain link fence to give privacy, it produces berries that birds love, and it looks fantastic with its red fall foliage.

That wind and rain last weekend is what did it. So I missed some beautiful trees. Oh well. I am also going to try and get some pics of our older buildings and will be sharing them, plus talking a bit about them in future posts. I am still trying to get things sorted and settled in here. It is a slow process this time. I am definitely not doing things as fast as I did in other moves.

That is a bit discouraging, however, Muffin and I are getting it done and we are both quite happy with how things are turning out. There really is not much left to do now. I have begun hanging pictures now which is usually the last thing I do, though I have a few other things to finish off as well.

Some nice fall foliage at one of our local schools.

My kitchen kind of looks like an empty cavern. I should really have my little table in there which would help, but I like to have the table by my living room window. It is a nice place to sit and eat and look out over the area. Rather than staring at a wall.

Perhaps I should get another table to put in the kitchen, then it would also give me more room to use when I am baking. There is not much counter space in the kitchen, only about 4 feet, which is already full. So, having a table in there would be helpful. I might look into that possibility. I can hear a cup of coffee calling me. I hope you all have a wonderful day and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
