Rain!

OK, not a lot but over 3 days, we received 0.26".  As always, the lingering clouds create dramatic images in the surrounding mountains. Have I already stated that our road, finally, at last will be repaved in early December?  If not, it is.  I ran into a couple of city workers today and asked if they had changed their mind but no, definitely going to be repaved.

A couple out walking a couple of donkeys or burros...who knows! Jack was uninterested as we walked by.

We got out for a 35 mile ride in Oro Valley and I finished the week with 127 miles.  Need more.

The cooler evenings allow us to build a fire in the outdoor fireplace.  To be sure, I do check the temp of the bottom of my shoes to make sure they are not melting.

Happy Beaujolais Nouveau day!  A neighbor puts on a very nice party each year to celebrate and kicks in 20+ bottles for those of us privileged enough to get an invite. Hors d'oeuvres are included too!!! Amy doesn't drink much wine but that's ok, I try to make up for it so the host doesn't get stuck with full bottles, lol.
