Marking Time

We dipped down into the low, low 30s again last night. Our forecasted low was 31 degrees and I have no reason to doubt we hit it. It was quite chilly in El Casa Móvil De Pennington this morning, which, of course, encouraged me to remain abed…all warm and snuggly and such. It’s my habit and practice to turn the heat down to about 60 or so before retiring; I sleep best in cool temps. That habit makes rolling out of bed on cool to cold mornings just a little…um…problematic. Much easier to remain where it's warm, nu?

So, here I am, working on the third cup and still making the morning’s virtual rounds. Ill be back in a few, but in the meantime…

Today’s Pic: Some Fall color (and a friend) for you in a spectacular setting—Letchworth State Park in Upstate New York, near Rochester. October, 1999.

  1. Am I correct in assuming that El Casa Móvil De Pennington is light on the insulation? brrrrrrrr ;) Great pic. Most of the trees are bare now, except a few.

    Yes. Yes, you are. All RVs are light on insulation, and the fact that RVs, being wheeled vehicles, have all that open space underneath where the wind and cold can sweep through unimpeded doesn't help a bit. Which is why you don't see too many RV "full-timers" in the northern latitudes! ;-)

    Our trees are getting pretty bare, too. I was wrong day before yesterday about all the leaves falling by day's end...we're still about 25% leafed out. But they're going fast.

  3. Here 90% of the trees are completely bare, just a couple of species still have any leaves. Don't ask me which species. LOL! It is mid-November, so time for all the leaves to be gone, but it doesn't seem like it because it has been on the mild side for fall here.

  4. I love the picture. I have always wanted to visit the Northeast during the fall to see the colors.

Just be polite... that's all I ask.
