It was spectacularly cold this morning, a late-spring winter hitting use pretty hard. I know, 33°F isn't terrible compared to a lot of other places, but we are in late March! We're used to 80°F+ from here on out. Admittedly I'm not looking forward to summer, not at...
I truly did not want to crawl out of bed this morning, as we are in the middle of "The Wintering: Part 2" here in Florida. Which is to say, it was about 40°F and I had forgotten to set the heater to "on" before bedtime. Keely, however, would not be deterred by cold...
I have not posted a photo of Lake Ella in a while...usually because when I'm there it's still pre-dawn and there isn't much to see! But here is a hint of sunlight: It's been chilly for the past two days which both Keely and I have enjoyed a lot. I'm dreading what the...

Good morning to my in-progress reorg of my working office space. I have made progress since this photo was taken (the closet is now accessible!) but whew...it's like playing tetris in here, shifting things around to get to other things. I am packing and re-packing a...
