New Year’s Eve….

Gary BoydDecember 31, 2024
Only on the Texas Gulf Coast is New Year's Eve. Feel like early summer.... I'm firing up the grill to smoke a pork roast for our New Year's dinner. The ceiling fans are on because it's well into the '70s on this porch with the sun beating down upon me.…

It’s another overcast dawn.

Gary BoydApril 24, 2024April 24, 2024
According to the weather prognosticators, most of today will look just like it does right now. Though, our run of 70° temperatures has pretty much come to an end for a while... And those overnight lows in the 50's.. we probably won't see another one of those before fall rolls…

Gary BoydDecember 19, 2023
Tuesday, December 19th There was some wonderful pre-sunrise color this morning. Though at 40° the back porch was just a bit chilly. As I stood there and watched the show, birds were singing all around me. By the time the sun had cleared the horizon, the color had washed out…

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 September 19th https://youtu.be/a9EJFTMPDVs We dipped into full fall (for SE Texas) weather this morning. When the temperature and the dewpoint both start off in the mid-sixties... the morning just feels right. When I stepped out to document the morning I saw I already had a chore needing to be…

Thursday, September 7th According to the readings on the weather app it shouldn't feel this pleasant on the front porch. But with the fan blowing, it's almost chill. According to my phone, it's a comfortable 77°. Over the past few days we've had a massive influx of hummingbirds. It seems…

  • “You are the storyteller of your own life, and you can create your own legend or not.” — Isabel Allende.
  • “My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just to enjoy your ice-cream while it’s on your plate.” — Thornton Wilder
  • “Sing in me, Muse, and through me tell the story of that man skilled in all ways of contending, the wanderer, harried for years on end.” — Homer, The Odyssey
  • “The rule of law, civil liberties and civil rights—these are not our burdens. They are what makes all of us safer and stronger.” — Bob Mueller, Former Director of the FBI
  • “The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson
  • “Find meaning. Distinguish melancholy from sadness. Go out for a walk. It doesn’t have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn’t have to be a walk during which you’ll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter. Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don’t find meaning but ‘steal’ some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn’t make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.”

    ― Albert Camus, Notebooks 1951-1959
