It is now. Just been to paddle my feet in the ocean but there are too many people leathering up their skin lying around.

Fancy boating over this way and picking me up?

Too much to do this afternoon after a long lazy weekend of fishing.

Sitting on the couch watching the forks drop over grouse, toward port moody, and a touch south. It's nice when they all go off together.

Provides a lovely backdrop with the city lights and reflections on the water too.

Think I need to buy a new camera :thumbup:

Had the driest summer since records were kept in N W Oregon. .25 inch from July through October 11th. Sunny nearly every day, nearly all days in the 70's and 80's, and as usual afternoon humidities low. Ended today, rain and showers all day, high in the upper 50,s, more to come:frown:
