Things were a little ragged here this morning, as Sunday mornings go. Jim and Mary did not "attend" church. Their church here in Rockland is in transition with a new pastor. So Jim, Mary and Ellen were all working on the NY Times crossword puzzle during the church hour. I went into the bedroom and plugged into part of the Guilford service on Zoom and heard Pastor Eliza preach on "bird-watching." Yes, she has made a sermon series on summer-time activities in the Bible! Mountain-climbing, boating, swimming, picnicking - all of which can be found in the Bible, and today, bird-watching. Turns out there are a lot of birds in the Bible, and bird omens have been very important in Elisa's life. So, as usual, it was interesting.
In Guilford, they were all talking about possible power-outages, but here in Maine, Henri is not expected to bring much more than some possible heavy rain. There is, however, a high surf advisory, which could be interesting at the cottage. Five to eight-foot waves! But that is probably for the open ocean. The cottage is on a protected cove. We have never been here in these conditions before, so we don't really know how vulnerable the cottage is. I guess we'll find out! Katie, Savanna and Brendon will be in the cottage until tomorrow. By the time we move in, I suspect things will have calmed down. But tonight could be interesting. It may even be interesting right now!
Mary has been working in the garden this morning. The garden is really beautiful this year.
Great looking garden!
