THE BEST MORNING SHOW




First week in November '17 and the best morning shows have returned to our living room. First and second cups of coffee enjoyed in the peace and quiet of a warming morning home. A few blogs read in between the moments of quiet wonderment of worldly things. Her mutters a low "wow" from time to time and if she does not explain, I am left hanging until she shares the new crazy she has found on face book, local news or the bigger picture. I put down my tablet and return to the best morning show. A house warmed with wood summons good things.

OVER FLOWING BANKS

Heavy rain and winds this last week and like seasonal clockwork, rivers crest and overflow with rain water run-off. Low lands become large lakes for awhile and winds had many folks in outlying areas without power; access roads blocked by snapped power lines and fallen trees. 

This was a no-never-mind storm by "nor-Easter" norms. It was mere bump in the road though for folks with generators, stored food and water. An inconvenience at worst and many stories of neighbors helping neighbors.

Lineman (hanging on his hooks) working one of the many out-of-the way single family power outages this past week. Son calls these "onezies twozies outages". Kid's got an eye for taking a good photo.

Appears Antifa turned into Antifa-ilure across the nation this weekend. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

A week in photos and not much opinion.

Noticeably colder temperatures on the horizon but no snow forecast as of yet. Final push for last minute put aways. Pot roast on the slow cook later this morning. First small pot of clam chowder later in the week.

Thanks for the visit and you know the drill. Enjoy your week.
