Dark Golf; Last Vestiges Of Color; Loud Alert, Tiny Fish ~ Fall In Summit 28Sep24-05Oct24

I was fortunate to catch a quick nine at Kennedy with MLC, though it was black at the end (we stood in headlights to get the pic) ~ we didn't find balls easily those last couple holes. Still, a blast, and then dining on good Indian food before heading out to Silverthorne.

I have to be in Summit for some wrap up duties on the summer season (sails down, spa repair, etc) but LPC was able to grab Kala after her return flight from Raleigh/Savannah. Yeah, she rode out the hurricane in the southeast. All safe but for a nasty cold. I was pleased to catch the last vestiges of aspen color in the 'hood while here though.
While the next attempt to fully fix the spa did not work, I did get a future appointment to try again. I did complete a keen DAC comparison, and all the returns of "losers," for the Nest Desk (full story HERE). Is it wrong to receive "loud environment" alerts from your watch ~ nah, a guy has gotta complete the "tests." While I'll focus on funk for the October MA, I really enjoyed Sierra Hull's full show at Baygrass, and Sarah Jaroz's new LP, Polaroid Lovers. Golly these Nashville ladies on vocals & mandolin (or variants thereof) are awesome.

Between the "duties" I did get on the Blue north of town (I modded plans after discovering Jurassic Pk is flowing 1100cfs to empty Green Mtn rez), fishing was meh with just some tiny fish, but it was a gorgeous afternoon below Rt 9. I'm just glad more cars didn't fly off the road at me.
I liked them so much that I'm gonna build another pair of NanoOnkens... drivers & parts are in the mail but I have prepared all the 15mm Baltic birch parts needed for the fab... kindof of a "duty."
The end of the sailing season is marked when there's dust on the peaks, the colors are gone, the snow stakes have been set, and the sails are down.
