Today I went around ten miles on the ebike over some single track on my favorite mountain bike ride. I also did a lot of tasks around the house and trimmed the blackberry bushes.
It is almost the end of the blackberry harvest now. Most of the berries and not ripening all that well. Usually around this time of year there are a lot of spiders catching all the fruit flies. I don't see that many spiders yet this year.
Here's a picture I took of a bee on the mint flowers:
One of the last bunches of blackberries in the sun:
A view of the blackberries from the far side of the hedge:
The sky was nice and clear at the time I took these photos but it was very overcast and grey sky for most of the day today.
I still need to do a lot more trimming on the hedge in order to keep it under control. I also need to clean out the rain gutters on the house and reseal some leaks before the rainy season starts. More stuff on the todo list.
I'm just glad it is not raining and storming like the hurracain over by the east coast. There have been so many big storms recently and so much destruction. I feel bad of all the people who have to deal with such weather.
Many places are getting way too hot as well. I can deal with some grey sky days and cooler weather. I like this climate a lot.
I was planning on selling all of one of my crypto holdings and free up some memory on my machine but the more I sold the crypto the more the price seemed to rebound. Go figure.
At this point I guess I'm planning on buying some more memory for my machine so I don't have to be so concerned with the issue. (I kind of hate to update an older machine though when eventually I know I will be replacing it anyway.)
It is interesting how crypto seems to get popular again when you don't expect it. There sure is a lot of volatility in these markets.
Thanks for reading! I always value your support and comments. The pictures were taken by me with my Galaxy S9+. Text and graphics copyright lightsplasher & litesplasher.
