This is the Opie's house where we temporarily halted our journey. A total burst of laziness. Sleep late, relax, do nothing. I even thought of doing a two-days page upgrade, but then I felt guilty about my readers ...

Number of miles traveled today: no more than five, just to go to the grocery store and buy supplies for a 'spaghetti carbonara'.

Main happening in the morning (late morning):
breakfast made of blueberry pancakes with butter and maple syrup.

Barbara Opie is a talented watercolor painter.
I fixed a small exhibit here, so you people can appreciate her work.
She claims this is not her best, but it's anyway nice and colorful.

Just a little bit of work so as not to feel guilty for all the stuff I have to put together.

Working with a laptop certainly has its limitations, but it's very versatile, and power, on the new models, is not a problem anymore. Only limitation is the screen quality.
No way, a good Trinitron monitor still shows its difference in the colors!

And, finally, TV as the ultimate sign of depravation. A movie with Count Dracula and a Werewolf, placed in London during World War II. I did not see the title, unfortunately, I could have advised you people NOT TO WATCH IT, just in case it could be coming up on your favorite TV station.
