Summer in November

is quite an adventure.

Yesterday, November 10, I went out for a walk at lunch time in my shirt sleeves. Quite amazing for November. The dandelions must find it amazing too.


This week work in being done on the river bank. There is a very damaged cement layer over the river bank that is being pulled off and replaced with natural limestone. It is real fun to walk out the door and see all this.

I took the above photo about 4 PM when the fall light helps to create the most amazing reflections in the water.
Meanwhile traffic continues on the river. While the engine boat pushes the barges, it is still called a tow. There are two tows down at the Lower Landing waiting for their loads. (I live at what used to be the Upper Landing.). Lower Landing is about 1 mile down river.

This will all come to an end probably this weekend when the snow showers arrive, but it surely is fun while it lasts!
