Beautiful morning. No fog. Got up at the usual 5am, and went to the farm
to start the da, and as the sun started rising I thought this is too
good to pass up. So I put in the jacket, helmet and gloves and went and
fired up the mighty v11. Started easy...
Took out on the highway and headed north. Almost no traffic. Went 25 mi
up to Dietrich. Went in the gas station for a quick diet coke and ran
into my brother! Hey! It's coffee time!
Had a good yet brief visit at the table, then he had to go. Me too. So
now back at the farm and ready for the day. Man, this is fun!
I was just at Brant Rock in Marshfield, Ma an hour ago. It's right on
the ocean about 35 miles south of Boston. Very clear morning. Could
clearly see the lighthouse on "P" town (tip of the "hook" of Cape Cod),
a distance of about 21 miles across Cape Cod Bay.
Is beautiful when you get nice clear days. Flying in to Boston one time,
pilot even gave a little right left so everyone could see the cape. Must
have been 100 mile visibility. Here is clear and cold. 43 this morning.
Was supposed to be the Dungeness Crab opener this Saturday for sport
fishing. Season is on hold because of the warm water and algae blooms.
high levels of Domeic acid in the crabs. Cause amnesiac seafood
poisoning. May not have crabs for Thanksgiving. Biggest week of crab
sales all year.
