Good evening from chilly Paris Hill, Maine. The falling leaves, shorter days, and cooler weather remind me of all the chores I need to do outside before the snow flies (the local ski resort made snow this week). One of those chores is touching up some paint around my window dormers. So that’s how it came to be that I was on my roof as the moon rose last night. I thought it made a nice picture. As always whether you’re doing chores or just relaxing this weekend, I hope that you get some time outdoors too.
