2023 Day 338
Monday, December 4th It's chilly out this morning. Almost too chilly for shorts and a t-shirt.. almost. While waiting for the sun to come up this morning, a song from an album of Rodney Crowell's first published in 1994 came up on my playlist. The album name caught my eye…

Friday, December 1st After more than 2 inches of rain yesterday, this morning dawned very, very foggy... 100% humidity. And it feels anything but fall like outside. The temperature this morning is 66°. But, the fall color is still working its way into the landscape...

Thursday, November 30th It's a damp but warm-ish morning. The weather prognosticators have been foretelling of a possible "weather event" for today. They began casting their warnings a couple of days ago.. One of the nice things about damp air and overcast skies is it brings out the fall colors…

Tuesday, November 28th I was out enjoying the sunset on the back porch where it was still but cool when I realized that I never posted this post this morning... So as I enjoy the relatively cool 57° with the sun just touching the top of the trees still... I…

Monday, November 27th This morning the pre-dawn light brightened a chili start to the day. The low for the night bottom doubted 39° according to my phone. The morning light tends to add more color to the trees than is actually there.. strangely the predominant color around here as we…

Saturday, November 25th On Thanksgiving Day I saw an image of my red oak tree from 4 years ago. In that image, the tree had already gone through its entire fall color change. So I guess this year fall is a little slow in coming... But, as you can see,…

Friday, November 24th It's kind of a blah morning. After an overcast Thanksgiving, we have an overcast Black Friday. And, since this is the one day of the year that I will never shop on.. we'll be hanging around the house and doing the switch over. You know what I…

Monday, November 20th As we move towards Thanksgiving bits of color are beginning to show. But even so, the predominant color is green.. except at sunrise.

Tuesday, November 14th The prognosticators are calling for another overcast day. But already this morning I can get a glimpse of patches of blue sky. And looking to the east the sun is trying to peek through the overcast. The day long light rain we had yesterday managed to drop…

Monday, November 13th It's a rainy cool Monday. While the temperature is only 61°, the dampness makes it feel much cooler.. though the wind blowing from the north probably sucks just a few degrees out of the air. It's pretty much been just like this since Friday. Though after our…

Friday, November 10th It's time to switch our focus from the sunrise to the Red oak for the fall. For the past week I have noticed the beginning's of fall color. It started out as just a bit of lighter green scattered through the canopy. But as the week has…

Thursday, November 9th Happy 45th Anniversary Sherry When we stood before the justice all those years ago. I don't think I ever envisioned being here and now... Somehow.. after all these years.. we've become our grandparents. That was brought home to me as we went through mom's house and found…

Tuesday, November 7th It was another pleasant morning on the front porch shared with the birds. I am enjoying every one we are granted.. we don't get all that many pleasant mornings here. What does it say about expectations when a high forecast of 83° is looked forward to as…

Thursday, November 2nd It's quite chilly out this morning. But at least it's 10° warmer than the record low for this morning. I did notice there was a bit of frost on the roof. 5:47 p.m. I decided it was the perfect afternoon to sit on the back porch. The…

Tuesday, October 31st It's another wintry morning... At least as far as South East Texas winters go... Overcast, breezy, and quite cool for this time of year. I guess that is to be expected after our unseasonably hot and long summer. I must admit this is not an evening. I…
