The Adventures of Sunsette -- Holiday housesits, Jan. 9

[Alliecat]

I was wondering if you had seen the new Avatar film. ...

No neighbors in sight -- so in other words, you wouldn't mind living in this particular house?

"Mum might have gone to see it again.  A couple of times."

"Definitely not.  It's cute as a cottage, but far too small, has no basement or attached garage, getting out up the steep driveway after a snow is a major effort, and although it looks a bit design-magazine-y, it has a variety of design features that go in the 'why did someone think this was a good idea?' category.  Still, we loved the peace and quiet."

"So after being iced in and then snowed in, we got out in the yard for about 10 minutes, but by then it was so atrociously, abysmally bone-breaking COLD, that was as long as we lasted."


"There's a cute little lighthouse overlooking the river."



"I'm sure it's nice in the summer...."



"There's a boardwalk and some dunes nearby, but everything was covered in snow over a layer of ice, and it was about -15 with wind chill on top of that.  So, another 15 minutes outside and that was all."



"Driving up the shore road, we got really excited when we saw these masts ahead."



"It's.... an antique shop.  Um, OK.  And closed, too bad."



"These are Mum's housesit buddies.  The orange one is into everything, so we all had to stay out of reach."



"The next round of forecast freezing rain didn't materialize, so we made it back here OK.  Bummed as usual to have to return.  We told Victor about our adventures."

"We still have some past adventures we haven't posted yet.  But, that's all for this trip.  Thanks for reading!"

"Love, Sunsette  "
