[+74*F....partly cloudy....winds east @5 mph]
[rain and thunder storms predicted starting after mid-night lasting until mid-morning tomorrow]
[Now Playing: "Lt. Ellis of Shadow"[link]]
Except for a mid-morning walk to Aldi it's been a fairly quiet day....picked up some more baby greens, another bottle of artichokes....and a nice piece of emmentaler cheese imported from Switzerland....and the usual liquid egg whites....sparkling water and of course bananas....made a very nice egg dish for 2nd meal....baby greens, artichokes, green onions, a bit of green cabbage, fresh garlic....and some Swiss cheese I had....not the emmentaler....just your basic Swiss....and just some fresh cracked green pepper corns....some salt to taste and a few dashes of hot sauce....very nice....will definitely have to add to the rotation with the root veg....
Last night I was sitting out as I often do in the evening just before dusk....and chanced to see on of the housekeeping crew taking a cart of garbage to the dumpster....he had only just opened the lid of the dumpster and out of nowhere descended a flock of flying rats [aka:seagulls] being as close to the end of Lake Ontario....they that is the gulls are everywhere and seem to have some instinct that draws them when a meal might be present....usually arriving in the area in April and leaving in October....but they are replaced in the other months by vast numbers of crows....looking for food....usually garbage....so how it's appropriate that a large group of crows is called a murder....but on the other hand scavengers are an important part of the ecosystem....but they "waste products" are every way....reminds me of a poem[?] I learned as a child "Birdie Birdie in the sky....dropped some whitewash in my eye....I won't fret and I won't cry....I'm only glad that cows don't fly"....
