our walk was so lovely that i must update my groggy post from this morning to reflect the wonderful day this is. soft warm air in november. a bright new rose blooming in the bird feeder garden by the lake. foggy and dreamy. with fat squirrels in the branches and the grass. fluffier and slower than the fast bright summer squirrels. 2 groups of geese flew over, low enough that they were flying between the trees instead of above them. but still in their vee formation, loudly honking. they must have come to the lake for a while and were heading back to the lawns where they eat. (a third is flying over the house this very second). there was also a mottled white and gray dove among the pigeons. a lady with a bag of bread feeding the ducks off the bridge. neighbors calling hello to us across the harbor. a beautiful beginning......
