Once the habit is formed there are few activities that can be compared to sitting down first thing in the morning with a cup of coffee and the Daily Newspaper.
There’s a bit of Catch up to do, this is the state of the Island. Oh brother what a state it is in.
Everybody's famous in a small town, this one is no different
Docks.
A family of Raccoons occupied the broken down deck on the right for a few years. One of them would stick it's head out the wide gap in the center when he heard a noise.

Everyone has Pumpkins growing, apparently they are volunteers bandied about on the tails of Rabbits, Skunks, and Raccoons.
Wood Piles, a Sure Sign of Fall.
Now this is the King of wood piles, the horse pasture is directly behind stretching to that roof in the distance. I gather this bunch up in my wagon and take it home, but not today for this pile.

Light and Dark, I tried to Capture the Wind.
That will be my next pho-blog, zero flash, limited light, longer exposure. It's actually fun and interesting figuring all of this out with a nearly 20 year old camera.
