Day 817 Thar she blows!

3rd November 2019

We moved the rest of the leaf mountains to the side of the road, awaiting the city trucks to collect.

There is always the dilemma of whether to sweep the neighbours leaves whilst I’m doing mine.

I solve that by letting them do it themselves. My reason is they have a large Maple tree that sheds most of it leaves into my garden. Now I could be awkward and make piles under his trees, but I’m not petty.

These are the people I never see. He arrives home at the same time every night and once the door is closed that’s it. They may have to plug themselves in every night to recharge.

Later we took the dogs to the beach and walked to the lighthouse. There was a flash git kite boarding on the lake. Back and forth he skimmed the waves, twisting and changing direction like he knew what to do. Kelli just thinks I’m jealous, of course she is right in a way. If I was to have a go, I wouldn’t know how to control it, and would probably end up heading for Wisconsin.
