It's good you celebrate the onset of contractions. No wonder the noise keeps you awake.

Good "job" girlfriend.
I don't labor any more so I stopped celebrating Labor Day....I now celebrate Retirement Day all year long.

My apologies, I am totally serious here. This morning Google Maps gave me an update on our travels. Here is part of the report:

It is nice to see you are still alive...I don't care what you decide to post on the Not. All good...whichever direction you take it. Apparently you spent 8 hours in the outhouse...google don't understand quite "everything".

You misunderstood. I barehandedly killed a grizzly bear in Glacier National Park. We were hiking on a trail and I was picking and eating huckleberries. I had so many a bear died of starvation that winter.

Autumn is almost officially here. Sunset now happens before 7:00 for Peg and I. I saw a nice view from the kitchen and so I headed down to the river for the best view.

I may be quiet for a bit so before I go let me say "Happy autumn" to the regulars and "Even a happier spring" to the southern latitude lurkers.

Beautiful photo, Rick! I noticed you had not posted many local area walks this past summer. Hope all is well and if you are heading out on a get-a-way, I wish you good weather and a splendid time.

What a lovely view. It reminds me of running path which encircles reservoir in NYC’s Central Park. The perimeter of reservoir is banked by trees on all sides.

I love autumn in NYC.

However, it’s okay here in Los Angeles as well.

Pray you and Peg are happy, healthy, and wealthy.

Have a great time Rick....I'll bet your lake isn't as big as my lake....but we drink ours.
Ironically it is called the "Chew Valley lake"....perhaps they ought to rename it the "Slurp Valley lake"
Autumn is one of my favourites,,, the colours and mists as I watch my four legged friend's a**e getting further away on his walks. He does come back though.
Have a lovely time.

No, but there is no biking allowed, so if bikers are seen, shooting them is definitely allowed.
