Came Early!
I was downloading some pictures of a recent Halloween party from the camera and I found three shots of Firth Lake whipped up by a “blue norther”. These were the last pictures of the season. I was taken by the desolate beauty of the shot below. The other two pictures showed how big the waves were breaking on the beach next to Janet’s boat. Nice pictures but not as evocative as the one below. The waves at the beach were a good clean foot to foot and a half tall from trough to crest!
Its seems odd but even this cold and desolate picture makes me home sick.
We went to Brian (recently named) the sausage king aka pussy boy’s for his Halloween party this year. It was a great shindig with plenty of excellent food and libation. And as always much hijinks. Janet and I are pictured below.
Yes dear reader that is Mimi and Jeffrey T. (stands for Edgar) Spaulding. There was a lot of – “I shot a bear in my swivel chair… How he got in my swivel chair I’ll never know!” And “shut up PIG!” Mimi and the Captain won several beer pong games but as with all drinking games (and “Boolya Box” of course) there are no winners only losers.
Another happy note I was tickled absolutely pink to see my Rivulus tenuis eggs hatching last night! Right in line with my estimates. It’s very cool to see the tiny little devils swimming about taking newly hatched brine shrimp. Why is it always about fish??? My sister Joan says that we don’t have a single family photograph that DOESN’T have at least one fish in it!
