Spidey Visits the Metropolis

When I got up this morning, I saw a long, thick rope dangling down in front of the window where our little dining table sits. I was so excited: we hadn't missed the window washers after all!!! I grabbed my camera and went out onto our deck to snap a pic:

I couldn't have that job for all of the money in the world! No way!!

And there he dangled right in front of us, just a minute or two later:

He is quite thorough and very methodical in his work, never stopping to pose for me or even smile!


When we returned from walking Barker, Spidey had moved over to the next row of windows, and had already done our bedroom. I snapped this photo of him from the other end of our little balcony.

Then I noticed more activity down on the amenity level:

The gardeners are changing out the seasonal plantings, adding pansies and ornamental kale and cabbage, which will last until Spring. Part of me says that I could live this life all of the time, never again having to lift a trowel or shovel in any garden and not missing it for a moment, but another part still enjoys diggin' in the dirt! I guess I'm not really ready for full time condo living.

In my long and rather pictorial post last night, I forgot to add this photo of perhaps my all time favorite new scarf, October Sky:

I really, really love it! The blue is more intense than it shows here, and the colors in the leaves really do sparkle.

It is available at "Occasions by John & Troy", the new shop just off the square in GainesVegas.

PEACE, HOPE, CHANGE:
OBAMA/BIDEN!!!!
