kinzelHere it's a gray, snarly kind of day with high humidity; I'm told this is a result of the hurricane running amok in the gulf -- that's Gulf of Mexico, not Gulf of Maine...
The lily was up and out when I peeked at 7:30 or so; now it's open fully. When I went to inspect a small finch came with me and sat on a branch not three feet from me, chirping a reminder that I hadn't refilled the thistle.
So now the thistle's refilled, the other bird feeder is seeded, and ...
the big news is that I spent much of the morning doing rush back-ups to CD and other hard drives on the home network as this computer began acting up badly. I guess the drive's got about 18000 hours on it...
we'll have to see what gives. This is *not* the time I want to have to be buying a new computer, or even just a new hard drive...
Meanwhile, our trip south continues to look...interesting. As of the 11 am forecast we'll be running down the eastern edge of the hurricane/tropical storm strike probability zone; our closest approach to that zone may be when we're in the Scranton to Harrisburg portion of the run. I hadn't been going to do this now, but looks like I have to update the laptop with the GPS with the new Delorme if it has the power... hey, what's another hour or two out of 36?
