11/13/25 05:14: silversquirrel: Hi Homely and NQ: Yes, we leave tomorrow evening at 8 pm. Phoenix to London nonstop. We are treating ourselves to Business Class in the hope that the pods will offer a chance to sleep! I have packed the usual stuff plus the kitchen sink. Cat sitting arrangements made. I'm wracked with anxiety of course, which is my usual pre-travel habit. Thank you for remembering! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families. My husband has convinced me that international flights are not affected by Orange Hitler's government shutdown. Be well my friends. Have hope. If we win the mega millions, I'm not sure we will return to the US except to collect our kitties and the check!
11/12/25 17:08: Homely: Hi, Luc - I'm so sorry to hear about your home was broken into and your belongings were damaged and stolen. How awful. I am certain that you still suffer because of the incident. As for MD, we all thought she had passed away but she had just stopped posting - she came back in July but has not returned. You can see her July posts on this cam: http://www.opentopia.com/webcam/10444#comments
I hope to see you around again soon.
11/12/25 17:02: Homely: Hello, Everyone - and a big Bon Voyage to SilverSquirrel tomorrow! Hope your packing went smoothly, and may your bags be ever under weight! N Q, that's crazy early for frosts, at least where I come from! We were expecting a frost last weekend but it did not hit. Our son, on the other hand, just got six inches of snow in Vermont near Lake Champlain, and he went to a function up at Jay Peak last weekend and they are already skiing up there! Brrrr!
11/11/25 17:38: Luc D. n: Hi, Thank you all,
NQ : no, Unfortunately, I didn t make new timelapse for a long time ...
All computer + music Keyboard + software were stolen and I never bought them again. my home was... hummm with all our stuff on the floor we spent 1 month cleaning all, sheets etc... it was a sad moment for us...
Hope every thing is good for you, I don t see any message of MD for years, maybe she read them with a smile from where her spirit is now, who knows ?

10/24/25 14:50: N Q: Silversquirrel, I hadn't given any thought to the fact that you're in Phoenix and probably don't have a lot of cold weather clothing. If you have a wool sweater and a windbreaker, consider taking them, especially if you don't want to take your puffer coat and you might want to buy a set of silk underwear, they're light weight, small to pack and they keep your bodyheat in. Hope you enjoy your trip.
Homely I not only survived the first frost but the 3 that came after that along with this mornings low temp of 28 degrees ! After having had such a hot summer, I'm really enjoying these brisk temps. Hope you're taking some breaks between work to get out and enjoy the Fall colors :)
