"I'm becoming something else..."

[greygirlbeast]

Not a whole lot to write about, as regards yesterday. At least not, as regards writing. Since I didn't write yesterday.

Spooky and I chose Beavertail for our Mabon ritual. Last year we went farther east, out to Fort Weatherill. The weather was cloudy yesterday, and windy, but not cold. We found a good flat place on the rocks north of the lighthouse. No one nearby except a few fisherman. Sailboats in the bay. Gulls and cormorants.

Afterwards, we drove to Saundertown to visit Spooky's mom and dad (and get eggs and basil, squash and tomatoes). On the way back to Providence, we stopped to watch the sunset over a pumpkin patch north of Slocum. It was a good day. Autumn is not my season, but if it must come, it should be embraced.

There are photographs:





"The Fairy Path," on the way to the rocks at Beavertail (view to the north).



Looking towards the lighthouse (view to the south).



Another shot of the lighthouse; note anglers.

This was once a crab.

Last night, we watched the Season premiere of Heroes. I liked the introduction of the carnival, and I still adore Zachary Quinto. But mostly, the show is what the show has always been. Not really good, just entertaining enough to keep you watching. Later, Spooky and I got in some WoW in the Badlands, with our Draenei characters, and we both reached Level 42.

Cripes you hair is long.

I may never cut it again (except my bangs).

I think I was editing my message the same time you were responding to it and it went plooey. Urp.

That, and the fact the computers at work have been even buggier than usual. I'm surprised that they still boot up.

I love the lighthouse pics.

Those rocks at the coast are amazing! That's a really atmospheric coastline you've got there. The fairy path is beautiful too. We have a few places like that nearby too - it's one of my favourite things about living here.

A Blessed Mabon to you and Spooky. :)

ps my apologies for not having bought a copy of The Red Tree yet. It's been a tight couple of months. I'm hoping to be able to get a copy soon though, and am looking forward to reading it.

Looks more like a southern view to me ... I'm just sayin'.

Which one? I just checked them all, and I'm sure the captions are correct.

The one that finishes ...View to the southwest.

;-)

I just checked Google Earth to be certain, and the trail there runs a few degrees to the southwest (or northeast, depending).

Oh...wait. Are you trying to be funny?

[galdrin.livejournal.com]

trying being the operative word, eh? Thanks for playing.

The fairy path is so beautiful.

I'm not sure what the weather is like there but Autumn is really beautiful in Alberta. Mind you we are mostly prairies so there are big golden fields surrounded by red, green, and yellow trees.

There's something beautiful about fields or ripe golden grain, and the moderate weather before the frosty winter.

But I'm waxing poetic...It must be the fairy path picture.

Probably the wrong place to put it, but you talk about movies a bit.

Have you seen PontyPool yet? If not, you need to see it. I think you'll enjoy it.

Oooh. Gorgeous pictures. <3

I am glad it was a good day. May that be the rest of the season.
