It’s one of the sunniest falls on record. Yes, someone somewhere keeps a strict record of any and all sunniness – and makes twice what I do.

Sadly, it now gets late very early around here, via non-Daylight Saving Time, aka Standard Time. However, the darkness is currently offering a bass bite, aided by a waxing moon. Using black plugs on a calm, moon-saturated night is enough to keep me awake – and plugging – at night.
