Truck Canopy Built and Termination Dust

Another great Monday of not working!  Somehow we are enjoying retirement on Mondays more than other days.  Thanks to good friend Sam, Neil got the truck canopy covered today so the loading can commence!  We will soon find out if we have room for the bicycles in the canopy or not.  If not, they will have to go on top of the truck cab on a Yakima rack.

It was a mixed bag for weather today, with sunshine, rain, and things in between.  The "termination dust"--snow on the mountains that indicate the termination of summer, is pretty far down the hillsides and temperatures are in the thirties.  It must be time to leave!

The house is pretty much put to bed for the Fall, and it sure looks different than our summer photos.  We usually don't take Fall pictures of the house and garden.  We do have a bit of yellow Fall color, though.

Since the weather was pretty good part of the day, Neil took a trip out to the North Douglas boat launch ramp and took a few photos.  The boat launch floats have been removed for the winter and only the dock pilings are there.  Mendenhall Glacier is getting some rain in the background.  Only a few more days until D (departure) Day.

We look forward to your comments and suggestions for our travels.  Thanks for visiting!
