  This old house was only a few blocks from the state Capitol in Madison, Wisconsin. All the neighborhood cats lived in the basement during the winter. The house has long since been torn down, but in 1972 there were AR2ax speakers in the front room, and a lot of good music was heard there.

Beneath Pikes Peak

Beneath Pikes Peak

A beautiful evening in the back yard last night, and we used the chiminea for the first time in years. Ethne says the next time we ought to make some horseshoes while we're at it.

In the morning we had hauled a carload of garden rubbish to a site that recycles it into mulch. Then I spent spent the afternoon clearing brush from the alley behind our house, while Ethne continued tidying up her garden, where her daffs and tulips are already waving their heads.

Some evenings a beer tastes even better than others.
