But first,

They're indoors, and I didn't want to traumatise them with a flash, so the pic is a bit dark.

Well... the locals obviously got it wrong, but they barely know of Harry Potter's existence, so... At least we recognised the Dumbledore connection!

So now we know Downtown Memphis offers asylum to ducks and Aberforth. The weather was its normal self: hot and humid, although it fooled us into believing this morning that it was going to be a pleasant day.

Oh,

dragonsinger954 posted some picspam here, mostly of the art of ghetto cheesemaking.

Tonight,

calypsobard joined us at home, and we knitted and crocheted and chatted and ate cheese and later wiped out the last of the Indian feast, and, oh, she recorded her TTMT vid here with special guests. I guess it may be online tomorrow or day after. Will link once she posts. I finally finished my sock of doom and got to show it off, yay!

Too bad you couldn't at least one of them home. I vote we have a couple of ducks as pets.

I was born in Memphis, but I had forgotten about the ducks at the Peabody! Thank you for reminding me!

You lie, the duck didn't ... duck, and the Lucius goes nowhere near anything with mud in it's name.

It wasn't that I wouldn't let you bring home the ducks, it was that I really did not want to let you get us arrested for trying to bring home the ducks!

And I love that shot I got of you! Smiling!!!! YES :D

's okay. We know local cops. Besides, nobody in Memphis would arrest us for stealing ducks. That would probably not even count as a misdemeanor.

You caught me smiling??? *le gasp*
