It has been another couple of beautiful days in Juneau. Picked-up Alison and Doug yesterday. They had a wonderful trip to Redmond, Oregon for the Juneau Golf Club Fall Spectacular. They spent a couple of days in Seattle on the way home and scored a couple of nice dinners and live jazz.
I spent most of the weekend fiddle-fucking around with my new computer. It's finally stopped demanding that I update this or that every time I log-on to the internet. I've installed all the software I bought. Yesterday I spent six hours or so getting my new financial software up-to-snuff.
Today I got back outdoors. Leaf raking at mom's (she had already done about half of it by the time I got there in late morning). Then to Auntie's for a mow, serious weeding and fall cutting-back/clean-up action. Tomorrow promises more of the same - will finish with auntie's flower beds and then mow mom's grass and cut-back a bunch of stuff. There are still a few things BLOOMING, however, and I am loathe to cut them down. So it is likely that some stuff will just have to lump-it 'til next spring...at which time, if I'm still in Juneau, I will regret not having cut them down this fall. Although it is possible that I may have a further opportunity to do so when I return at the end of October - if I'm not shoveling snow. One never knows when winter will commence in these here parts...
Finally, a family picture from a few days ago.
