Reminded of Wilco watching Austin City Limits: Handshake Drugs

"Handshake Drugs"
I was chewin' gum for something to do
The blinds were being pulled down on the dew
Inside, out of love, what a laugh
I was looking for you

Saxophones started blowing me down
I was buried in sound
Taxicabs were driving me around
To the handshake drugs I bought downtown
To the handshake drugs I bought downtown

They were translated poorly, I felt like a clown
I looked like someone I used to know
I felt alright
And if I ever was myself
I wasn't that night


Oh it's okay for you to say
What you want from me
I believe that's the only
Way for me to be, exactly
What you want me to be

Oh it's okay for you to say
What you want from me
I believe that's the only
Way for me to be
Exactly what you want me to be

Exactly what do you want me to be?

They were translating poorly

I used to know
And if I ever was myself,
I wasn't that night

Exactly what do you want me to be?
Exactly what do you want me to be?

sunset photos from tonight (for Amrie)


Most of the leaves have fallen, and trapping season starts tomorrow. Muskrat sign is common, and I can't wait to take Connor out trapping.  Wish Amrie was here for trapping season. She is a great help!
Cleaning and Burning leaves. Red pine needles kill the yard, and we get a lotta leaves!
 Calm water and nice sunset from the end of the dock
