Autumn Days

The days are turning cool and the leaves are turning in Victoria - perfect fireplace weather. Of course it helps if you bring the wood in from outside. That was part of the plan today, but we've spent a great day with a friend who came over, and that bit of the plan got modified to either sometime tonight, or tomorrow. Preferably tomorrow as it it easier to see the centipedes and evict them off the logs before carrying them into the house.

Last night we had a lovely event at church called "Live at Oasis" with impersonator Ben Price. It was great to enjoy an evening of humour that you can actually bring the kids to (even if they don't understand all the jokes!) The caretakers of the hall we rent were worried we might have too large a crowd, so Andrew & I helped out by directing traffic in case we were overflowing. It was a great reason to play with our orange traffic torches and portable ham radios!

Afterwards, a group of us went to the "Pancake Parlour" (amazingly they are open to 3 am on Fridays & Saturdays). It was a foggy autumn night, which is very cozy when you are home in front of the fire, but since I wasn't, hopefully we'll get another one soon!
