The Monster On The Roof

The view from the kitchen sink is lovely, from sunrise straight through sunset. Here it is at 8:30 this morning:

so lovely!

Standing squarely in front of the window, it's mostly a view of the neighbors' roofs, but it's certainly not bad.

neat & tidy!

Well, I just had my first run-in with neighborhood wildlife, there on the neighbor's roof. I came around the corner into the kitchen, & a ferocious squirrel was running along the gutter, straight for me. Very startling! Luckily, I'm pretty ferocious myself, so when it saw me, it turned & ran away.
