Lazy fall day.. Diane and I took a great hike up in honey hollow withe the dogs this
morning. It was misty and the fall colors.. muted as they are this year.. looked particularly nice.. The sun was filtering the mist is a really cool way…\u00a0 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Our colors really aren’t that bright this year.. many places are still holding on to green.. but many have gone straight from yellow to brown without stopping in red or orange as they usually do.\u00a0 The results is muted.. but still gorgeous. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As always we placed a samstone at the crossing of the fast running creek. This time I placed the stone in the water. I’d love to be able to watch the water smooth the stone over many months.. We’ll keep an eye on it. <\/div>\n

We came home and began working around the house and the yard. One of the things I did was to clean out some of the yoga space.. That meant taking Sam’s drums up to the attic. Sam was always playing these things.. as were his friends. After Sam’s passing, his friends would come over and play.. or max would play when he was home.. then fewer people came to play music here. Now the drums are quiet and disassembled.. or is that dis-a-cymballed ?\u00a0\u00a0 Taking them up to the attic was one of those flashes of sadness that surface often in our lives now .. I put the drums in a safe place upstairs and cried for a bit.. then got back to my cleaning.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Gabe and I spent some time finishing our crazy giant chair.. the chair is actually the middle of our climber thing.. We cut the middle out last weekend in order to use the structure as a roof for our pizza oven. The center looked so much life a chair that we decided to finish it off. .. It’s very cool to sit in it that high. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Around 6, Diane and I headed over to Ben’s for a small end of summer party..\u00a0\u00a0 It was a pretty small gathering a about a dozen folks..\u00a0 homer, chris and duane were there from the burner contingent. It was nice seeing them all calm and happy. Everyone seems to be\u00a0 recovering nicely from the crunch at the end of the timecycle project. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

I’d had a bunch of liquid nitrogen left form a movie project earlier this week. I brought it with us to make ice cream for the party folks.. Diane had made some delicious chocolate stuff to freeze.\u00a0 It was funny making ice cream at ben’s house… the house of ice cream… . but came out well and tasted great. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As we left Ben’s., the clouds and mist were floating over the near full moon.. just as we got to the car, a bunch of coyotes started howling very near by. It was an amazing, almost human sound.. mournful and menacing.. and at the same time wonderful.. we all stopped and listened.. it was so cool…<\/p>\n

Now it’s 10:30.. early for bed, I know.. but I can’t keep my eyes open. time for sleep.. Gnite everyone.. Gnite Sam
