Turkey day

I think we decided on a turkey for this year's roast beast. I'm heading into town this morning to order it. I also have to find out if I pick it up next Saturday (too early for Christmas Day) or if there will be a special market on Monday or Tuesday. There often is when the holiday falls mid-week. The other option is that we can pick up the turkey at the vendor's atelier (workshop) in the neighboring town. It's not a retail facility, but they let customers go there to pick up orders when it's more convenient for them.

The full moon beginning to set just before the sun came up on Friday morning.

The wind howled all night, but there wasn't much in the way of rain, at least that I heard. The moon is shining brightly so we're also not particularly overcast, either. We saw a lot of the sun on Friday. More rain is predicted for this evening through to Monday morning. It's been a weird year. We've been either parched dry or soggy wet, no in-between.
