Before leaves and firewood…
Just FYI, I took another 9 truck loads of leaves to the city composting heap on Friday. This was the big batch. In another week I’ll clear leaves one more time, and call it a Fall for those purposes.
But before the leaves and the firewood, it was September when the boat saw it’s last few outings for the year, and the final fish was caught. As Fall approached, the acorns were falling like mad. Felt like it was going to fill the boat… I exaggerate, of course:
Three weekends in a row, I cleaned out acorns from the boat before going out for a few hours. The second to last fishing weekend, on September 22, I caught this bass, 18″ long, 3#10:
The following weekend, I went fishing one last time, to little effect. Then we took the boat out of the water and put it into storage until Spring. Meantime the leaves started falling, and I started getting sunrises like this, right around the time I was starting work each morning:
That’s all for now, I’m trying to relax before the upcoming work week.
