Index & July 20th

July 24th

Another quiet day. We really need Anne Guido here to act as tour director. Dave & I are just sitting around cruising the internet, watching TV or reading books. Not a bad way to spend a vacation, but I could do that at Oswego. By the way, I checked & it looked like the weather cleared up enough for the Harborfest fireworks. Too bad I won't have pictures. I probably won't have them next summer - I expect I will still be out west somewhere traveling around with my Escape 17B. That will be another tale.

I just received email from Anne Dougherty & it did rain during the fireworks. The went off, but they got wet: "Well, you would not have taken very good photos of the fireworks, as it was pouring cats and dogs, maybe a few elephants! I was soaked to the skin in a new rain coat. We were sitting in our new chair with the roof up, but this roof is narrow and the rain dripped off the roof down into the side or the seat forming a puddle."

Anyhow, I did get downtown & took a couple of photos:

From there it was a short stop at Stop & Shop, forgetting to get something for dinner, then home for more goofing off. I did get out to Miacomet Beach for an hour. Still huge waves with almost no one in the water.

Now I'm back at the house trying to think of something for dinner!

Well, the decision was some hot dogs that were in the fridge. I cooked up some squash from the garden that met with David's approval so we are fed. It looks like it is going to rain again tonight. So far it has rained every day or night except one since I've arrived on the island. Maybe I should have waited until August!
