Fall Colors on the Salt Marsh

The beautiful colors shimmering in yesterday’s sunshine over the salt marsh caught my eye enough to turn around, park, and take a few photos.

Eagles in Magnolia!

A pair of magnificent bald eagles came to rest in a tree in our backyard yesterday afternoon in Magnolia. One was calling out and it sounded as though “she” was right next to me. The call went right through me. If you look carefully at these pictures, you can see the one on the upper branch calling out. The pair flew off and a singleton landed again a few minutes later, so I can only confirm 2 in the area though it could possibly be 3. Hoping to see them again soon. What a sight!!!!

It Bothers Me That You Can’t Have Separate iPhone Volume Levels For Ringtones and Alarms

This from Apple Toolbox:

Can I have a separate volume level for my iPhone ringtone and my iPhone alarms and notifications?

“Unfortunately, at this time, there is no way to separate the volume of your iPhone’s ringer for phone calls from the alert volume for things like alarms, texts, emails, messages, and other alerts–their sound is set at the same volume.

And we really don’t know why Apple ties both the ringer and alerts volume to the same volume slider. It’s doesn’t make sense for how we use our devices today!

So you cannot lower the volume for any alarm you use to wake up in the morning (or for whatever) without lowering the volume for incoming calls.

The current recommendation is to turn down the ringer volume slider each night, then turn it back up in the morning so you don’t miss any phone calls. Yeah…not ideal!”

Music on a perfect day

Jon Butcher performed for The Cabot as part of the Porch Sessions series at Hale Farm yesterday. It was a perfect weather day for some folksy and blues tunes in a small venue. Alan Estes accompanied on the mandolin and harmonica.

Afterwards we drifted over to Nunan’s Nursey in Georgetown for some mini golf on a beautifully landscaped course and checked out their fall display.
