Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be, across the nation and across the world. It is just past 7:35 p.m. in "The City." 

There are no watches, alerts, nor warnings in the forecast from the NWS which is broadcasting a current temperature of 41° that feels like 38° with winds out of the south @ four mph, all of that under fair skies. Tonight's low-temperature is forecast to drop to 32° before we rebound to tomorrow's high-temperature of 47° with an overnight low-temperature tomorrow night of 43°. The sun will rise tomorrow @ 8:06 a.m. and set later @ 5:12 p.m.

Mary finished listening to her latest book last night while I was finishing reading one we'd picked up earlier yesterday at the library. A quick read that was just plain fun.

One thing about being retired is that you have more time and that no day is more important than another, with the only exception being days with medical and related appointments or seminars for photography. I find that having more time doesn't necessarily equate to getting more done.

I didn't accomplish much today. I did a little painting, read more of our shared book, and took STWD for a nice walkabout to the library and around the neighborhood. When we returned, I did a little cleanup around the vast-gardens of the manse, that included some raking, some picking up of fallen branches, and a lot of trash that had blown in during the high-winds over the last couple of days. 

While Sugar and I were out, Mary and Ginger walked over to, through, and back from Duncan Woods. While there, they took some great pix. Here they are in no particular order, but enjoy.

Duncan Woods is left to nature as much as possible.

Great shadows.

Ginger loves walking and sniffing in the woods.

I'm always amazed by the quality of the pix from a Smart Phone.

Every year, someone decorates several of  the trees in Duncan Woods.

Tomorrow, I have to go to a P/T appointment, hopefully, fix the lights on our Christmas tree, paint more, work some crossword puzzles, and play more music., I played some today, but my throat was scratchy, so I didn't go as long as I'd planned. Maybe tomorrow. 

That's all folks!. Ciao.
