Storm clouds headed this way and the clouds were piling deeper and deeper as the day progressed. Towards sunset, the winds calmed down and the bay turned to glass.
The birds on the bay were more interested in eating than their eye candy surroundings.
Just before the colors faded to gray.
Supposed to get up to a half inch of rain starting tomorrow night. Sure am looking forward to it. After a good rain, everything looks so refreshingly clean and ready for what comes next.
Am trying to figure out when I can head up to the Seattle area for some way overdue sight seeing. Is starting to look like September will have to be the month -- already have plans in October (including my birthday) and by November, I'll be running into the risks that winter travel brings.
Gonna take some planning.
So beautiful there. You must love your serenity and peace. Will you stop by to visit Teddy and Patrick?
ReplyDeleteLoo Hoo.
hey loohoo -- i plan on going to see the boys but wanted to give them a chance to unpack first :) serenity and peace is exactly right loohoo -- and just what i needed.
ReplyDeleteI'm feeling good about the foreclosure I'm doing. It's possible the bank will write off the 235K. One gal said they would when I asked why they would hire a realtor, auctioneer, appraiser and title folks to make a short sale. I said that that made no sense to me. (Or anyone else with a brain!)
ReplyDeleteThey'd be selling my place to someone else, but would lose $50K in the process, rather than just reduce the principle...
feeling good about it is what matters. i sold my place for a loss but i got out from under it -- which was my goal. i hope they do the write off but if they don't, you've already made up your mind to walk -- a win win for you either way.
ReplyDeleteYep. It's a real sense of financial freedom, as you experienced, but also POWER! The banksters wouldn't talk to me during 14 months of work on a loan mod. Now they're calling me and making offers...
ReplyDeleteIs there an easier way to comment here?

ReplyDeleteOkay, so we still have to type the mystery word each time...
ReplyDeletethat mystery word helps slow down the spammers. every now and then i turn it off and boy oh boy do i get hit with spam... google has redone their anti-spam comment software.. i'll turn the word off and see what happens.
ReplyDeleteThere must be a way (but don't ask me!!) to verify a regular commenter as legit. We know FDL does.
ReplyDeleteVICTORY FOR ALL OF MANKIND!
ReplyDeleteOh, the places we will go! At least, if you can be here on a Sunday and Monday, when I'm off. Can't wait!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThankees for the lovely sunsets. I've missed ours, stuck on the phones as I am. These photos make me feel better!
hey dana -- glad the sunsets make ya feel better. today is completely overcast and i don't think i'm gonna get a sunset tonight... the gray will just get grayer and fade to dark.
ReplyDeletei think i'm gonna need a week just to see everyone i wanna see.
Sounds about right! Maybe an extra day or two if Discovery's airing more Bad Universe by then.
ReplyDeletedana.. looks like i'm gonna have to bring token with me... bailey cat is self-sufficient and happy when no one is home but token... well token gets riled when alone in the dark
