Overcast Morning On A Quiet Lake

6:36

It's 7:00 and there is not a boat in sight although they will be coming. It looks like a decent day, the last before the heat wave hits us starting tomorrow. It's after 9:00 and I paddled for 50 minutes. It was a good morning for birding despite the gray skies.

Yesterday was a bore. It began as usual with kayaking, so that was not so bad. We had only one thing we had to do, change the water filter, and that took all of ten minutes. So we had a relaxing morning, tidying up the kitchen and living room but that was about it. I had a bowl of soup for lunch and then we drove off to Ashtabula Cleveland Clinic for a scheduled appointment with my cardiologist. That takes up a good chunk of the afternoon, with an hour and a half drive there, the same back. Fortunately, we did not have to wait long to see him which is the usual case. On the way back, we stopped for gas at Love's and Evie got us large fries and drinks from Mc Donalds since we had not had much of a lunch.

We were home by 5:00 and Evie quickly put together our dinner, a pasta sauce with mushrooms and then we relaxed for a good hour on the front porch with a glass of wine on a beautiful late afternoon. Around 7:00, Evie made a salad, heated up the noodles and we had a tasty dinner. We were not sure what to watch so we tried the first episode of Grantchester on PBS, then watched a couple of episodes of Daisy Jones and The Six, about a rock group in the 70s. And that was it for the evening.
