Silent Sunday

They've been putting in the sewer system for the housing development next to us, making a hell of a racket beginning before eight on every day except Sunday. So this is H's best day for sleeping in.


And to think our western and southern neighbors used to be a wild abandoned apple orchard! Gave us a real sense of being in the country. That's going to change soon enough -- or finally, I guess, since once the deal was made and the trees uprooted by those god awful huge machines, we were ready to get it over with. These will be upscale homes, so we hope our property value will rise as a result. We expect to be moving in a couple years into some kind of retirement community where everything is at hand.

After a few days without rain, another string of storms arrives today. It's been a very wet fall.

I have a lot of editing chores to catch up on. The new review is due out in a month.
