No snow at Thicut. House okay; outside temperature is 45 degrees. The brook is rushing by.

snow??

Wet snow fell in Glastonbury last night, grass is still poking through snow this morning! Jen and I are on our way to Thicut to see what it looks like there.

Fall 2011 first post

Happy Fall! Anna Ruth has settled in in Bethesda, so we're officially back on house check/reporting duty. I emptied the fridge and turned it off yesterday, checked around for forgotten items (none!), and did a quick walk through of the house.
  • It doesn't look like the oil has been delivered... tank still says 1/4 full.
  • I picked up last mailbox mail and will send 1st class to Bethesda.
  • The new chimney cap looks good: is there a screen on the opening to keep the squirrels out??
  • The leaves are barely colored: a muted color for fall this year, I think.
