Our usual morning, coffee and papers in bed -- not quite the maid serving but Judy the maid -- and then a walk down to the trail and Westchester Lagoon. Just 3 or 4 blocks from our house, though, we saw a big bull moose just lying down in somebody's yard, presiding over the happenings in the neighborhood. We had to walk back home for the camera - we never get tired of seeing moose right downtown - and on the way we talked to people walking their dogs who lived there who said she had to open the door and look out to see what the noise was, and there was the moose, right in her face -- he'd been eating the pumpkins by the front door!
We continued on down by the lagoon and then were sorry that we hadn't brought our skates since it was a bright, sunny morning, and people were out on the lagoon skating, shoveling for a hockey game, lacing up for a family skate, dogs were running, and you'll notice in the picture, a bike and a baby carriage out on the ice!
We both had things that we had to do for the afternoon but we had a later evening movie at the Bear's Tooth Theatre Pub -- a little booth we reserved the day before with a "Popeye" pizza and beer while we watched - "Trouble with the Curve." All in all, not a bad day -- but we're already a week later than last year for skiing!
