Another Beautiful Day

Yesterday was another beautiful day. The kind of day that made me move here. It is almost mid-October and the sky was blue with temperatures in the low 80s coupled with low humidity. A perfect day. 

I had a number of projects to tackle and, sadly, I did not get to all of them. But, they have moved to today. The most important project is installing a smart switch for the fan in our bedroom. We had one back in Maryland and it was great to be able to turn the fan on or off in the middle of the night without getting out of bed.  The switch actually arrived from Amazon yesterday afternoon. 

I managed a bike ride yesterday. I seem to spend a lot of time biking along the banks of the Loxahatchee River. The river has a number of forks and, therefore, riverfront property in the area. Along the banks are a number of small parks and bridges which provide places to stop and enjoy the scenery. Later, near the end of my ride I saw my favorite tortoise eating along the bike path. 

I was late getting out on my bike because I had to wait for an estimate for a roll-down screen that we are thinking of installing on the patio to reduce the evening mosquito assaults. I think the tortoise is getting out later because is it so much cooler in the early morning. Regardless, it was a good ride and a good day that ended with dinner and some pool time at our friend's house.
