Some more chores at the Aerie

Lovely summer day here at the Aerie (after the morning fog burned off). The sun was shinning and the temperature hovered in the mid-70s most of the afternoon.

I spent the morning cutting the grass and then picking blackberries. It amazing how many there were on the canes along the upper driveway. That's what happens when you ignore them for a week and there's lots of rain.

After lunch I went and got the Tundra serviced. It's about 10 months old and needed its 10K service. I also had the dealer do the PA inspection thing while I was there. The dealer is a little over an hour away and it took an hour and a half to do the work so I was gone for most of the afternoon sitting in the "lounge" at the dealer's.

Rain is supposed to return tomorrow--which is a bummer since we are supposed to be going birding in the morning. Hopefully, the 50% chance of showers will mean the other half of the county gets rained on and we don't.

There's a street fair in Wellsboro on Saturday and I volunteered to set up and man a table for the Tiadaghton Audubon Society starting at 10:30 AM. The forecast for Saturday is excellent and here's hoping it stays that way.
