Good morning, frens! LMAO! We got another foster dog last night and much to my delight he slept through the entire night in his crate without making a peep. Praise Jeebus! We've only got him for the weekend, unless he gets adopted today. Anyway, I've got to go run 20 miles before my volunteer shift at the doggo adoption event.

It's 11:45pm on Saturday night here so I'm going with it being a late GMT.
5 hours into my 12+ hour shift and it's dragging on painfully.
On the plus side though I have my dog with me at work for a change.

Seems today marks the end of an unusually warm autumn. Have to put the winter tires on the Forester.

I'd like to go for a ride but trails are 'closed' :disgust1:
F*ck 'em! :ph34r:

On a go slow while we wait for the big ass steel portals to be made. (4.2m x 4.5m x 250mm square, and hot dip galvanised..... 4 of them)
The plumbing/drainage folks still haven't shown up though which is pissing me off.
When you say portals, you mean floor structure?

I am up early. Youngest came out at 5:30 to very reasonably ask for more medicine but I haven’t been able to get back to sleep.

First frost and it's bitter cold. Supposed to be a wicked cold but mostly dry winter, we shall see. Today is dry, so it's lawn maintenance day for at least part of it. I'm also supposed to go to Costco, but I might put that off until Tuesday.

Be safe out there.

Standing behind a tree in the middle of the woods hoping a deer walks by. Doubtful, as it's still a bit warm, but its still a beautiful morning to be standing in the woods. Gonna have to enjoy it as some nasty weather rolls in tomorrow and sticks around for a bit.

FTS at 12. Couldn't get to sleep until after 12 and up at 5:30am. And now it's snowing. I'm ready to go back to sleep.

Oh sweet floral hoppy aroma and high gravity, how Ive missed you.

Too I saw my first shark EVER while snorkeling at dusk yesterday.

4 footer who was likely more scared of me than I was of it.

Fun times!

My buddy wants to cross the border today into Panama as my vacation draws to a close.

This guy <= not looking forward to returning to winter snow...

no snow here; warm weather continuing until tuesday when we go to highs in the 50s and 60s and lows in the 30s.

went to see friend's wife play a solo gig, opening for band of horses. she did a great set.

slept in a bit, now coffeeing on the porch while wifey is at yoga. taking 13yo to his football game and then a halloween party. i think wifey and the older kiddo are going to ashevegas tonight. talk of a family hike tomorrow but we can't go up near the blue ridge parkway, as it'll be a total shitshow for fall leaf peeping.

Went to a party last night. Small talk with strangers was painful. Barely got to spend much time talking to the friends I wanted to see. Dead silent Uber drives to and from. I think I did it wrong.
