The usual summer pace has been here for more than a month. Only a few days or parts of days off but before I know it the goldenrod will be in full bloom and the first red maple leaf will show up on the shore of one of the ponds. Signaling the end of the summer season and the transition to fall for me. I have enjoyed the variety of trips this summer that is for sure. Not only different trips with new clients but some have asked to visit places I do not normally visit.
After an almost perfect day yesterday the skies clouded up this morning and the rain started at around 10. It has been very dry so we can use a little moisture to keep the garden’s going even if it does make the lawn grow. In the last week I have done more mackerel fishing than I have in a long time. Here is the view looking back at Port Clyde yesterday afternoon. I am sure you will agree that it was nearly a perfect day.
The end of this week is marked by an unsettled weather pattern. The pattern can best be described as afternoon and evening thundershowers and morning fog that leaves the air feeling damp all day. Luckily it is not too hot. Yesterday I was able to get in my morning striper trip and even mow the lawn in the early afternoon, before the rain started. This morning I awoke to the sound of rain on the leaves of the trees outside my windows and even though the rain was over by 7AM my morning canoe trip called to cancel.
