      Hooray!! Rurik and I just walked in a spot of rain to get my 10 minutes outside in. It was actually fun though I didn't have a day of work ahead of me :)

    October 19th, 67 degrees (and according to WeatherUnderground it feels like 77). Across the walking bridge and perspiring. A beautiful day.

    It finally feels like October, 50 degrees and breezy near the water. Went across the Belfast walking bridge and through the Front Street Boatyard where a great deal of disposable income is on display!

    Blustery day by the waterfront. Front Street Boat Yard to the boat house and back to the office via the library, a normal day in downtown Belfast. Fewer tourist making it safer to jaywalk once again:-)

    Today's walk was down by the water and across the Belfast (Maine) walking bridge. I was greeted by a harbor seal, lots of ring-billed gulls, and a murder of crows.
