Well, today is the last day of August, which means, in my mind anyway, the end of Summer. I know, I know, the whole "Autumnal Equinox" thing hasn't hit yet... but to my mind, the last day of August is the end of Summer.
The pastoral view of the garden shall soon be replaced by all those green things turning colour and falling down waiting for me to pick them up.....selfish bastards.....
Yesterday, Herself and I went to Peddler's Village in Lahaska, PA to window shop and otherwise, get out of the house and into the open air. Last week, between graduate school and the Army course I am attending virtually, I think I spent about 60 hours on the computer.
Needless to say, the only thing hobby related I did was to order some figures for my 25mm Irish War of Independance project and rant about the end of the "De Minimus" customs exception.
Today I managed to watch my Red Sox take one from the Pie Rats of Pittsburgh and got more classwork done for WOILE. I still have some discussion forum posts to finish, but that can wait for a bit.
Relaxing outside, I had one of the most interesting beverages, a real cane sugar orange soda made by a small batch maker in Georgia, I think.
And just perfect for celebrating Labor Day weekend!
I hear they are Russian to get in line for this!!!
Kindly provided by my friend Tracy at OttoCon. He brings a case or two every year and last year I asked him to bring an extra case for me. I don't drink it very often, as it is a regular sugary soda, but it's very refreshing when cold.
And so it was today.
Back to the discussion forum. Maybe I can get a game in tomorrow, since for the Army it's a DONSA, so we don't have class.
