Cruising Down by the River

I stumbled upon a strange fella lurking among the trees who gave me the old ‘come hither’. So I came hither. Okay, that’s not true. I’m a little long in the tooth for that old malarkey. Having said that, while my sell-by date might have long expired, I like to think there’s still a bit of mileage left in my use-by date. Liam, on the other hand, may disagree.

In reality, a glorious autumn day took these two old codgers for a shuffle down by the River Chet. We’re making the most of the fine weather while it lasts – it keeps us out of the pub. It won’t be long before the trees will be totally bald and the bone-chilling drizzle will force us back to the bar for a hot toddy. Tod had better brace himself.

  1. Enjoy the fall while you can. We get pretty chilly in the winter, but we don’t have the rain. I wish we had some.
    But our milder winters with no rain mean I can go to the weekly farmers market year round. In summer I sit in the shade with my coffee, and in the winter, I sit in the sun.

      1. Last Sunday, we had a very brief snow! It was well above freezing, but the clouds must’ve been icy, because snow drifted down. It melted immediately when it landed, but it was a real surprise to see. Thankfully, it has warmed up again.

  2. A hot toddy, haha!! Hope the sunshine stays with you a while longer.

    On our island we have had endless rain (I feel sorry for the tourists) and outside feels like a sauna when someone has just thrown a bit more water on the coals…
