Harvested the last of the citrus today. And, trimmed the orange tree quite a bit. Felt good to get a little sun on my face and clean up the backyard a bit. Too bad the local meteorologists are taking about a frost warning tonight, high winds tomorrow evening, and another 1-2 inches of rain Tuesday. 
But, looks at the pattern and color of this blood orange!

The sunshine finally appeared today, along with the wind this afternoon. While it’s still colder than normal, it was nice to sit on the patio and enjoy some sunshine. Lulu agrees.

Had dinner with the folks at the “old geezer lockup” as my Dad calls it. We are in the bar and left before the acoustic guitar player began. After dinner, we opened a bottle of Angelica. It was a nice way to spend a Friday evening.

Things that make me chuckle: this primitive drawing seen on a middle school campus

Website design can be a challenge. Take the Mosquito Bridge website, for example. El Dorado County has a nice header image on the landing page. Yet, to locate and read the updates, a user is required to scroll past bullet points and prior entries dating back to June 2022 in order to find an obscure link buried near the middle of the page. Worse, when they email alerts drop it includes a link to the landing page. 

At least the county is including images along the way. At least there's that. I am excited to see it come to completion, especially since it means that I will, one day in 2025, no longer be required to cross that rickety bridge in order to get to the property. The old bridge was "originally built in1867 and reconstructed on the existing foundations in 1939."
