We've had some beautiful foggy mornings lately. 

It makes for nice pictures, if you're up early, which I am because of the hour we 'fell back' last weekend....

Unfortunately, it always 'burns off' and has left us with some nasty, muggy, warm days. 
The temps are way too high for November and the nights are also not cooling down much, so we're rather uncomfortable, and have the ACs still going all the time. 
No need for our flannel sheets yet either!

Last Saturday we checked out part of the 15-Mile Yard Sale in the Husser/Wilmer area, which happens to be in our neck-of-the-woods. 

Held every year on the first Saturday in November, this Community day event draws hundreds of people all hunting for 'other man's trash'. 

The guys at the fire station made some excellent gumbo and jambalaya!

We scored a dog kennel. Not that we have a dog, but we're going to take it apart to create a cat-fence ...

Somewhat like this:

                                           

When we're somewhere where we feel it is safe enough we have no problems leaving Merlin outside (with access to the bay) when we leave for a couple of hours,  but when we're traveling and don't know the area, we don't take that risk and lock him in.

This way he might have somewhat of a whiff of the outside and still be safe. 

Our other hope is that he won't wake us up so early in the morning because he wants to go outside, when he can sit in the bay and look out this way ... yeah, wishful thinking ...

There's been a lot of activity around the B&B this week. James is working on handrails:

And the excavators are moving dirt from one end of the property, where the pond is going to be, to the other end, behind the B&B, to raise the backyard.
They're also creating another excess road, which makes for a lot of coming and going of heavy traffic behind the RV ...

As I've said before, Merlin loves trucks and has no problem with them driving very close by his chair. 

Being deaf has his advantages, although it also means that I have to keep a close eye on him, since he's so curious he'll see no harm in sitting in their pathway!

We bought him a new toy, by the way. Not that he's at all appreciative off course!

Since, like most cats, he loves to drink from the faucet, and wants us to turn it on whenever he feels like it, we thought to give him his own. This (electric) water fountain, on a continuous loop, splashes a small waterfall in a bowl. 

Do you think he has drank from it yet? Nooo, of course not, why would ya! One time, when James turned it off, he drank from the bowl. Right, big deal. Oh well ...

OK, there you have it folks. Another week gone and done. 
Only 2 weeks until Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday of the year!

Here's a shot of Saturday's full moon. It was a bit of a spooky one with the fog starting to come in!
