Cassi Creek:
Yesterday was sunny and clear.
Today, gray damp and heavy clouds promise to drop more rain over the
weekend Snow may sneak into the picture.
There’s a
nearly solid block of rain showing up in the Deep South and sliding up toward
us. We’re ready to bunker in and spend
the weekend in domesticity. We’ve topped
off the pantry, reefer and freezer.
The
television offerings are the typical end of the year stories cycled and
recycled. We’ve sat through a number of
bad movies offered by Comcast at no additional charge beyond our monthly penance. Perhaps we’ll find something of higher
quality, something that wasn’t intended to release directly to cable TV, if we
broaden our search a bit. Most likely,
we won’t.
I slept in
until 0800 this morning, a rare treat for me.
With the prediction of rain, I moved about two-three nights of split oak
from the tarp-covered outdoor rack onto the covered deck area to assure some reasonably
dry wood for the stove. I’m always
amazed at how dense hardwoods, oak, hickory, and ash, are when lifting and
carrying them about.
Time to lay
tonight’s fire and take some of the chill off the house before the rain
arrives.
