Not raining, plus miscellany

Blue sky.  That is worthy of note.

Delivered concept sketches to Contractor for the Starling Graveyard.  Pointed out places where I think they may be awkward, and he will contemplate and share with Owner.

Low 40s F this morning.  May or may not produce a bike ride later.

Did not watch Biden/Palin Revue last night.  "If God intended us to vote, He would have given us candidates."

Various people in Washington seem to think the House now has enough votes to pass the Bailout/Buy-in.  Be careful what you wish for . . .

Nick Reynolds, RIP

Founding member, along with Dave Guard and Bob Shane, of the legendary Kingston Trio.

Saw them once on stage. The group has gone through many incarnations since, some as good, some not.

Friday roadkill report

One measly flattened gray squirrel.  Even Tuesday's raccoon had vanished.

Morning clouded up, and temperature hovered in the low 50s F, but we did clear off a bit after noon.  I ignored (or cursed) the wind and biked anyway.  Fall "foliage" about 40-50% now, a moving target as some trees lose their leaves before others turn.  Also, the white pines have suddenly decided that it's time to dump the old needles, so we have yellow Gauguin shadows under them and across patches of road.  Slippery.

Temperature 56 F now.
