It's an end of the week, end of the month Morning Coffee Muses. Today is warmer, more humid than yesterday. Almost to the point of making me rethink my outdoor muse. It makes the mind wander back to the days of my youth when we had no way to escape…

Already Hot and Humid Midweek Morning Coffee Muses
Humidity and overcast skies for this Morning Coffee Muses
A warm, slightly breezy, start of the week Morning Coffee Muses.
So here is a selection of pictures from the fifth day on the mountains... Check out the post of that day Thursday morning on the mountain - Thursday, June 29. Today's images are taken as we meandered our way down off the mountain and along the River Road into Valle Crucis…
Quiet and still, warm and humid, Sunday Morning Coffee Muses
So here is a selection of pictures from the fourth day on the mountains... Check out the post of that day Slept In On The Mountain Morning Coffee Muses - Wednesday, June 28. We drove north on the Parkway almost to the Virginia line... Stopping at the Brinegar Cabin (to take pictures…
Hot, Humid, Rain on the Horizon, Morning Coffee Muses As the images show, I failed at even starting my Deere meditations yesterday. At the time the heat was just oppressive and there wasn't any cloud cover to provide any breaks. As you can see, we've had our first monarch of…
So here is a selection of pictures from the third day on the mountains... Check out the post of that day Mountain Sunrise Morning Coffee Muses - Tuesday, June 27
It was hot to the point of sweat running down on the front porch this morning. It was also loud, the sounds from the bypass sounding much closer than their quarter mile distance. So, since I'm running so behind have some photos... More later.... Gotta go do Deere meditations.
So here is a selection of pictures from the second day on the mountains... Check out the post of that day First Mountain Morning Coffee Muses - Monday, June 26
The heat and humidity are back in force, along with the cicadas... It's Morning Coffee Muses Other than that it's quiet on the back porch this morning. The tablet seems to be working, though formatting the memory card wiped out most of the camera archives and all of the music…
Yeah, I know. I procrastinate way to much. But I finally pulled the photo's off the camera memory card. Here's the shots from the day we arrived... Sunday, June 25 I'll post another set tomorrow.
It's another computer/tablet failure morning into afternoon Coffee Muses I've spent the day, so far anyway, trying to iron out my tablet issues. This is after spending all day try to do the same yesterday. I finally gave it up and just reformatted the memory card that has been giving…
This is the reason I first subscribed to Cooks Illustrated. Chris Kimball's editor's note was always the first thing I read. And because of wanting access to his story telling, I became a better cook.
It's Chore Day And The Tablet Is On The Fritz Morning Coffee Muses
Not Too Humid Monday Morning Coffee Muses For the first time in a week the cicadas are singing early. The milkweed at the end of the porch is looking bedraggled from all of the stripped leaves. Leaves eaten by monarch caterpillars, one of which has decided to cocoon on the…
A Cooler Than Normal, Not So Humid, Morning Coffee Muses
It's So Humid You Can See The Moisture In The Air Morning Coffee Muses
Early, Cooler, Dryer Morning Coffee Muses
It's A Twice Wiped Eyeglasses Morning Coffee Muses Walked out on the front porch this morning and had to wipe the cheaters twice before they quit fogging up. That tells me the humidity is up from yesterday, a one wipe morning, and way up from the day before when I…
Muses from the front porch for a bit of variety.
It's Another Warm Summer's Morning Coffee Muses Another day starting out in the upper seventies... but already in the eighties before I can get out the door and onto the back porch. Even the fans don't help a lot when the day starts this way. Yesterday for Sherry's last day…
Another In A Long Line Of Hot, Humid Morning Coffee Muses. It started out just tiny bit cooler this morning. It didn't last. The day remembered the calendar and warmed up quickly once the sun came up. We went to bed with overnight rains in the forecast... we woke up…
Happy 60th Birthday To My Brother Chuck Sixty years of having a younger brother. We are two men who only really have family in common. But... no matter what... I love you brother. Have a great celebration of another milestone in a life lived fully. The back porch muse this…
Another Hot Humid Still Morning Coffee Muses I broke down and sat in the rocker this morning rather than rush back inside after snapping my morning shots. It's already in the mid eighties and I find myself missing the temperatures from a week ago. Listening to the morning's soundtrack, it's…
It's hot... It's humid... Sherry has an appointment this morning. So this is all I have time for...
It's time to chase the cattle egrets this morning before the sun heats the world up too much. At this time of year the Deere meditation begins to feel more like a form of torture. It's now at the two week mark and looks it. So that's the major item…
Well, it's finally happened...Summer hibernation mode. When the thermometer on the back porch is pushing 90° at 8:30 am even the fans can't make it feel anywhere close to comfortable. That means, for the duration of this season most call summer, my coffee muses will happen in my office staring…
