Posting on a very wet Hump Day morning while waiting for the sun to rise.

Cheers.

Sucks getting old. But we all have our problems. I wish I could sleep without getting up 2 or 3 times for the bathroom. I swear there is a rut in the concrete floor going that way.

Try less midnight beers?...

Or earplugs to hide the sound of the water gently lapping at the side of your boat?

Here and enjoying a beer-free evening.

The bells ring and all is otherwise quiet.

Well it looks like the rain has nearly finished with us here and when I'm certain that it is I'd better get across to the supermarket for a few things before the snow arrives.

Ah yes, the things that start to go wrong as a person gets older.

Cheers.

Perhaps medical care should move to an annual test and check-up and guidance rather than expensively and painfully leaving conditions to develop too far into going bad?...

We have the technology. All a question using medicine for a better good?

Good luck for a fast recovery.

Well I decided early that beer was off the list today, then I wrote off ginger beer and then taking in the weather I started to think about a glass or 3 of either sipping whiskey or black zambucca, but then I thought that I might want them tomorrow so I just settled for a rum with lime and lemon instead while staying warm.

Cheers.

Posting after having dinner and as a powdery drizzle falls here while the temp outside drops down to 2C (feels like -3C).

Cheers.

Posting on a damp and windy Thorsday morning about 60mins before sunrise.

Well I havn't seen any snow as yet (that's not to say that there wasn't any while I slept), but the highway was closed last so the road out front has been very quiet. Currently it's 1C (feels like -4C) here while we're now expecting a 4C max for today.

Cheers.

Well the highway here has been opened up again and the trucks are moving past through the village again as the temp here reaches 3C (feels like -3C).

Cheers.

Well, the sun has scurried off over the horizon and yet... It's getting warmer! 26 deg C and still rising...

Fantastic starscape :-)

To quote a very (in)famous Father Ted: "Careful Now."

(Still not sure if that is meant as a good wish, plea, or command... Or is that the joke?...)

As the rain falls here again and the temp drops down to 1C (feels like -5C), the state's traffic authority here has already put an "alpine conditions" warning up on the highway (which has also gone suddenly quiet) so it's very likely to be closed again very soon. All I can say that this is the miserblist winter's day at I've had the pleasure of (not) in the 18 that I've been through up here.

Cheers.
