Fall, the colors are starting, but the lake offers a thousand views.

A while since the last one, since the boy took charge and disposed of the gifts and made off with the scrolls.
That's fine, he deserves a wider audience.
So, finally, a jeep full of treasures and time to unbox them. Unrequited treasures.
Note: I thought YouTube would let me splice the videos together. It didn't. So 3 separate videos.
Finally, the logical and predictable end to all material pursuits...
10, 9, DONE!

And, counting down the days left at the restaurant - told, first, that we'd be open until after the Thanksgiving Long Weekend. Then, on Thursday, the owners are discussing the possibility of closing after the weekend. I'm thrilled, naturally. Friday morning it's decided - Friday is to be the last day. That's the notice. Today, beginning the deep clean of the restaurant, menial, mindless work for which I'm grateful, perhaps a weeks worth all told, then back to the mountains with my pick and shovel to gather my winters supplies...

So, according to the information I've been given, 10, now 9 shifts to go. And the owners are humming and hawing about closing early, maybe even as early as this weekend.
I'm cheering for early. I'm done, it was a long summer. I want to be free now. A few short weeks ago there was the smoke from the fires in the US, then the rain, now the leaves are turning and there's a chill in the air and I'm missing my creative projects, a place to live (other than a sofa), time to get on with other projects too long deferred.
Now that it's out there I can't wait, a few shifts - hopefully - left, then up the mountain to gather more crystals (and there's snow now on the peaks, creeping slowly down, and I'm gathering at high elevations so this is not good news...), time to find a place to live, get organized and warm for the winter, start again the habit of writing (and there's been lots but the blog, well, it takes some regular access to a computer), ....
Restless. Fall is without a doubt my favorite season, yet I need a place to live and the time to enjoy it...
