goes the sun

IT WAS A VERY GRAY day today, pissing cats and dogs when we got up, and after a pantomime show that m's day care center had arranged (which wasn't as insipid as I expected), we headed down once again to see the on-site situation of the house. m passed out in the car, which gave M and I plenty of time to do some more . . . wait for it . . . staining. And if anyone who's reading this is not as tired of it as we are, they are not human.

When we arrived we found that the glass had been put in the main entrance door, the paper had been applied to the shoji, and we were looking at a completely different house than we had left last weekend. We closed down our staining operation due to darkness about the same time as the chimes of the village loud speakers rang out. The waves were high and still dotted with surfers andM and I took our respective cameras out to record the end of the day.

And suddenly the sky exploded throwing light all over us. As we walked to the car, I looked back at the house and found that the horizontal light had lit the interior as if someone had flipped a switch. (No, the electricity is not even hooked up yet, even if there were fixtures.)
