Holding Pattern

Not much has been happening lately, certainly nothing worth writing about.  That really hasn't changed, but I figured it was time to put in an appearance again.

The turkeys had been keeping a low profile just before Thanksgiving, but they're back in droves now and are loudly proclaiming their recovered territories.  Like the gangs in West Side Story (1961 film), the Jets and the Sharks, we have the front yard gang and the back yard gang.  So far it's just been yelling, but I've seen this escalate into real battles in the past.

We've been in a holding pattern with the weather.  Sunrise and sunset are spectacular with glowing red skies.  Michael and I take advantage of our sunny porch time.  We need rain, but it's hard not to enjoy this weather in December.  Down in the valley, they've been socked in with daily fog.  In just a matter of miles, it's like we live on different planets.

By consensus, Christmas has been cancelled.

Stay safe.  Be well.
