Up and out a little late this morning. Today's brew of choice is a lovely elixir called Dead Man's Reach ("Served in bed, raises the dead") :) Good stuff to get you going in the morning.

After the jacket weather lately in the morning we're back to warm, humid mornings. Gotta love New England weather. It keeps you guessing! But the morning rewarded us for bravely forging onward with our friendly neighborhood heron in flight on his way across the pond, going away from us. He disappeared around the point off to the southwest of our usual vantage point. Also this morning at the pond, a bird I've never seen before! According to my research he appeared to be a Downy Woodpecker. I love seeing new birds. I'll have to remember to check him off in my bird book.

Not much else to report today, but our new little friend was worth the post alone. :)
