It got up to 91 yesterday, which is unseasonably hot for late October and a few degrees short of the record. It brought out the lazy in us, but we took a morning walk at Floyd Lamp Park, a real desert oasis just a short drive away.
A few geese and ducks were napping along the shore and not too excited about our bread crumbs.
During the winter, the ponds are full of hungry waterfowl swarming like starving hoards. Tule Springs is a lovely, peaceful place any time of year. So close to the city, there's always interesting wildlife, like this Great Blue Heron.
Marji flew back to the nest yesterday afternoon. We had wine on the patio, followed by pasta and shrimp dinner. The good life!
