Back from an undisclosed location…
Actually, the location is easily disclosed: I was at home…
It rained.
But I was at home with 3 days off from the DayJob, wrapped around a weekend, making a full 5-day run of nothing but what I wanted to work on, at all and any hour of the day.  Very similar to my intermittent writing retreats to undisclosed locations, except that no actual travel was involved.
Plus: My sister had gone off for to North Carolina for a conclave of friends and a hike then another visit with friends. For exactly the same five days, plus some extra at the end.  An entire house (well, condo) all to myself!
So I hunkered down, worked on stuff, kept foolish hours, wrote and spent a bunch of time on necessary writing-related chores and activities.   And I did some local hiking.  I need to get as much of that in as I can before the winter sets in…
Then, of course, the payback came when I got to work and found urgent messages, and knotted problems, and — you get the picture.  Crazy-time.
Totally worth it, though.
This was without a doubt the tallest complete rainbow I have ever seen, occurring exactly at sunset.
