This past week we have certainly felt a change in the weather - temperatures of 25 - 27C, less wind (less dust in the air) - feels like a lovely summer day. With this great weather, not too much is happening. It's too warm to do much in the way of chores, and too nice not to just enjoy.
We still try to walk daily and very often we see some unusual, and/or interesting things. One day we came across a Free Little Library. There are many of these little libraries, much like we see at home; however, this particular one was definitely unique. It looks like it was made from several old coffee or end tables. Take a look at the top of the top cupboard (table) - there is a bumper on the corner which I expect was to avoid bumping your head while looking inside. Inside was a little container with candy and suckers inside, and outside a lovely park bench so you could sit while you chose a book.
I am not sure about this photo - I was wondering if perhaps it is in lieu of a regular bus spot as we know it. It didn't look particularly comfortable.
Tonight was another launch from SpaceX in California. Since we can watch the launch online, we were able to follow it in hopes of a repeat of the last time we saw one. This time, though, we are quite a long way away and all we could see was a large speck in the sky with a contrail. The other problem was it was not totally dark so it wasn't nearly as visible.
This is not Gerry supervising a couple weird folks. He is really just watching our friend Marleen, and her neighbour Gene, work on sanding a dining room table. I look forward to seeing this project progress.
But we did get to see this great sunset earlier this week. We often get to see some amazing sunsets. I'm guessing that dust in the air greatly contributes to these.
Last week I wished for warmer weather back home. Well, it seems that it has arrived and I imagine it is none too soon for everyone. Enjoy the temperatures and until next week, take care.
