Exposed

Yesterday morning was very fogy with a heavy dew in my front yard. I learned that my lawn was spotted with spider nests. The spider ducted down the tube into his lair when I approached.

Embracing the Wet

It is hard to keep a photo blog going with all this damp dreary weather. I chose to embrace it all, this is a photo of my pool light in the rain.

Cover Up

This field of verdant green is a cover crop just planted at the end of summer to recharge the earth for next springs crop.

Layers and Layers

Keeping a house dry inside is complicated. As the outside temperature warms & cools part of a house contract and expand thus it is very easy for cracks to form that will let moisture inside. We make a home water tight by wrapping the structure in layers with special joints when needed. Here we see tar paper on the roof an an underlayment to the shingles that will be the top layer.

Road Hog

Bicyclers in this area best be on the lookout for encroaching hedge.

Little Red

The Dune Church in Southampton must have gotten a paint job this summer as I do not recall this rich red tone. The church is only open for services in the summer season. The attractive interior is of a rustic arts & craft style with some very fine Tiffany windows.

Surf

This sure was a nice wave. The air is a little cold now for swimming up here.
