Savor

The October 2022 full moon rising in NE Kansas. It was chilly.

We drove our little butts off and went to Albuquerque and back again via Las Cruces. Those who flew were on time and the store-bought turkey was even moist and yum. We are a small clan but it was still good to have a get together. I hope to see some nephews next time, maybe at brother's house. 

My mom is in a lot of leg pain unfortunately and it remains to be seen how to help that. 

Of All the Birds, Ravenscroft catch, sung by Maddy Prior with Hannah and Giles from 3 for Joy. I love this song and hadn't heard it before. 'To whit, to who' is the British owl call (that I first encountered in an Asterix comic rendered in BritEngl). This song starts with owl admiration but seems to be emphasizing the night-owl aspect and it is a drinking song. I want to hear the album. Slightly variant lyrics.

Edited to add that no one has gotten sick after our get together which makes it a complete success in my book. Mom is doing better after getting more aggressive with her snuggest support hose and wrapped bandages. She is looking forward to a rally dog trial this weekend and was able to do the practice last Sunday. That's medicine for her.
