Al Fresco Lifestyle

Fall is here, which means more reasonable temperatures and discounted outdoor furniture! We're taking advantage of both, and are fully committed to the al fresco lifestyle. In the morning, we have our coffee on the porch.



Weather permitting (which means, if it is not too warm), we have dinner on the porch as well.

And, we may even choose to venture off the porch now that we have a fire pit to keep the bugs away.

I love the fall!

Long overdue

I have just been informed that if I don't create a blog post soon, I may never to get F to clean up after himself or do anythings I ask him to, either.

So alright then, I will make a post...



As you can see, the husband and I behaved very professorially during the time we did not blog very much. From this episode, we concluded that Europeans are not as much fun as Chinese tourists. Whereas Chinese tourists would have surely followed our lead, the Germans and Dutch tourists merely pretended not to see how we were making a complete ass out of ourselves. How boring.



I don't really feel like blogging about our holidays besides this, as Ellen is doing such a superb job, and all I would write would just look pathetic in comparison. So go and check out her blog already!

Especially for Tuncay

Bear!

We saw this bear last weekend, after a hike in Shenandoah National Park. It was actually jumping between trees, while I was getting the camera ready.
