This first Monday of Sabbatical has been pretty nice. I slept in until 7...then breakfast....a walk at Texas Beach...and now lunch & a glass of wine while reading on the porch. It's supposed to start raining this evening, so I'm picturing a movie night!
River rocks

Big snake -- a Northern Water Snake, I believe -- warming itself on a rock --

The graffiti is always changing at Texas Beach. It is a bit incongruous, but it can be interesting.
Graffiti at the river

It was my host for games group yesterday. And of course it being 95F outside, the downstairs AC had a funky smell -- in the way it does when it has been used once and then not used again. So we had to deal with a bit of unpleasant smell. It just means I need to open up the air handler, flush it out, and use some AC drain cleaner.

The game I chose (Shifting Stones) was well received. We used a swiveling Scrabble board as a turntable to turn the game facing each player.


I still have a few surviving roses, back from the time when I had a fair number of roses which I tended properly with fertilizer and pruning, and spraying for black spot. Most have died off without my constant care, but there are still a few in the yard.
