Good Morning Sunshine

7:16

It's 7:20 and because I have a doctor's appointment at 8:30, I am skipping kayaking this morning. It looks nice out, with the sun out on a 46º lake morning.

Yesterday was another stellar lake day; we are so lucky to wake up each morning to the sun rising. I kayaked for a good hour, spied only a cormorant, as the ospreys and herons must be hiding from me. I was home at 9:00, finished the blog with Evie's help, and had breakfast, peaches, and coconut yogurt. I wanted to get in some exercise, so I drove over to Greenhurst, parked my car at the beginning of Jamestown's Riverwalk, and rode into the city around the park. Then, I stopped for a matcha latte for the first time. It's made from pulverized green tea leaves and tastes like it. If I keep drinking it, I will end up liking it, but I was not impressed. Give me time? I then rode back to my car, stopped at Peterson's for corn, and drove home.

Biking Along The Chadakoin River

I didn't get home until after 12:00, and Evie had been busy and was about to start mowing the lawn. I had the leftover chicken, rice, and sauce for lunch, and it was quite good. We will definitely buy it again from Wegmans. I then did little the rest of the afternoon, other than read off and on, nap, and finally got a few things done in the yard. Evie mowed maybe a third of the yard, but was enjoying sitting in the chaise lounge so much that she put off the rest of the yard until tomorrow. I don't blame her.

We had our winetime inside because it was getting too cool to sit on the front porch. Dinner was pork chops with applesauce, baked potatoes and a tomato and onion salad with feta cheese. We watched the last quarter and a half of the Bills' amazing comeback win over the Baltimore Ravens. We then watched a couple of home improvement shows until Evie went up to bed, and I watched a bit of  Monday Night football, but was happy to get back to my spy thriller series, Spooks.
