A mildly cool morning, driveway sitting, with OJK in a Rattray’s olive wood 150.

I’m accompanied by strong black coffee and a spoiled white dog. Both made that way intentionally.

Rinse and repeat. I got an earlier start this morning to watch the sun rise and to get some quiet time ahead of the neighborhood's blowers and mowers. Today's Billy Graham email devotional was on point and helped calm me. I don't know much about coffee other than I either like it or I don't, but this Sumatran Gayo hits perfectly in the cool air.

Boop says hello. Have a great day, friends.

The calm sea and beautiful Mediterranean water reminds me of the terrible tropical storm that flooded your region just a few years ago.

The southeastern portion of America was devastated by Hurricane Helene last week. Very deep inland, even.

The city of Ashville, North Carolina, was home to some dear friends from Old CPS -- Irish Dane and Old Soul. Today it is isolated, accessible only by aircraft. All of the highways, including the great Interstate highways, are closed as bridges and pavement were destroyed by floods.
======================

Meanwhile, Autumn is just beginning in Wisconsin. Clear and breezy this Sunday morning as the sun rises. 56°F.

First the government they deliberately weakened the Fire Services and second they burned our forests to install wind turbines and photovoltaic.These produce electricity, but they do NOT supply it to our network but send it outside to Germany-Ukraine, where they buy it much cheaper. Result: not only do we have perhaps the most expensive electricity (Kwh) in Europe, but even with a simple rain we have floods because there are no trees and bushes to hold the water.
ALL the basements in the villages are damaged (it happened to my father's house as well) and the state says on TV that millions of euros in compensation will be given. Do you know how much the citizen who has suffered damages actually gets? Almost Zero!
First they come and record the damages, they also take photos and after months they come and tell you: "the state only gives compensation if you have everything insured and it's at least positioned on the ground floor".
Do you know anyone in a village if they have for example their wine barrels or agricultural tools on the ground floor? Not a single one but because he lives there! Everything they have are stored in the basement so with this dirty trick the government does not pay at all not a single euro to the victims of the flood.
On the other hand, the government in dt time: is forcibly expropriating fields, bringing in bulldozers and in a few months there will be an entire city exclusively and only for illegal Muslim immigrants. It provides them with FREE food, water, telephone, internet, satellite TV and plus 400 euros per person (of course most of them are from our Taxes) FREE to spend (often they do in on drinks, cigarettes,drugs etc.). Do you know how many hundreds of thousands of families live in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria, Africa etc from this money? Every month they send them from here to there and of course they call us on social media as "racists".
Take a look the queue in our ATM every month:

Of course no Greek man/woman dares to approach to withdrawal money, sometimes the ATM gets empty and the local GR has to wait the next day to get money for his bills/family expenses etc.

'Dayyy from Athens-Greece, we have sun and 77 'F here.

Some of my photos are not good (I don't have tobacco in my pipe, the angle is not right, no proper background etc.) and this is because i often rush to take photos in the cafe. Often my wife is also sitting with me, i tell her to keep the coffee-water in her hand or to put them aside so that i can take a good photo and due to my haste the result is not the best.
