Week 35

Welcome back and happy Tuesday!  Now that it's September and school is well on it's way it truly feels like summer is coming to an end.  I just wish we had a better summer without an extreme drought and excessive fires.  We didn't even get to go camping.  I guess we'll just have to hope and pray for a calmer summer next year.

Until then here are last week's pictures:


Day 242- Monday, 8/30/21

Time to kick off the work week.  I have a lot of cultures to care for right now and when I'm not in the lab I'm doing computer work here in my cubicle and even have a name plate now.





Day 243- Tuesday, 8/31/21

These fires are insane and one of our go-to to ski resorts in Tahoe got hit pretty hard overnight.  They used their snow making machines to help save most their structures which was smart.  Now South Lake Tahoe is in danger.  We can't help but watch and listen for updates (fire photo credits Getty/Reuters).  It was also just one of those days where cereal was what I had for dinner. 





Day 244- Wednesday, 9/1/21

Today the winds shifted and blew the smoke north out of the valley so for the first time in months we actually had beautiful blue skies.  Sadly the wind shift is blowing the fires closer to Tahoe so unfortunately our blue skies are not good for them.  Also happy September!  LOL--Bella was not cooperating today so this was the best shot we got, but it's all good because I kind of love it.



Day 245- Thursday, 9/2/21

It is September after all--found this nice fall leaf but I think it's more brown and dead from the drought and poor air quality than the change of seasons.




Day 246- Friday, 9/3/21

TGIF!  Toasting to the start of a nice long weekend and then relaxing while watching a new Netflix movie that had a good twist at the end.






Day 247- Saturday, 9/4/21

I started the day at a slow pace getting in my morning coffee while it was still dark and quiet, then progressed to chores banging those out so we could head out later to meet up later with friends for some good food and drinks at the Noshery in Roseville.  That mud pie was insanely HUGE!




Day 248- Sunday, 9/5/21

Today was a perfect day you try a new local winery we have heard a lot about but haven't had a chance to visit yet.  They have a great set up in an open-air barn with a lot of outdoor seating and a variety of good wines.


That's it!  See you next week.
