by day the blue will pale down into white where it touches the white of the land, after sunset it has a new circumference-orange, melting upwards into tenderest purple. but the core of blue persists, and so it is by night. then the stars hang like lamps from the immense vault. the distance between the vault and them is as nothing to the distance behind them, and that farther distance, though beyond colour, last freed itself from blue. -e.m. forster (a passage to india)

it was a beautiful sunny - and cold - day. the construction continued with drilling on the east side windows (which cricket is reacting to). they're supposed to do ours tomorrow, and i hope they do because i'd like this all to end soon.
Yes, thank goodness. They drilled out the old sill and I think they waterproofed, but am not sure as the odor has not been as bad as when they did the west window. Now they need to re-brick; hopefully next week!
Cricket is beautiful
