Last night's movie was a documentary The Booksellers.
Check out the trailer here:

It was informative and very enjoyable, so I was quite bummed to get tired part of the way through and 'possibly' doze off at one point. (I was accused of snoring...)
Yesterday's high of 89 did set a record for the third day in a row. But today temps are expected to 'plunge' to just 86 and thus break the string of record-setting days.
During this morning's soak I heard some random news: workers setting up the Christmas tree in Rockefeller Plaza discovered what they thought was a baby owl in the branches.
A tiny owl that was found after the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree was cut down in upstate New York, then trucked to New York City, is recovering at a wildlife rehabilitation facility.
A worker who helped transport and secure the tree discovered the owl and his wife called the center. In fact, the owl wasn’t a baby — it was an adult male Saw-whet, the smallest variety of owl in the Northeast, the center said. He hadn’t eaten or drunk in days, but began to recover after getting fluids and food.
The center said a return trip to Oneonta would likely be too traumatic to the bird, so it plans to release it on facility grounds in the upstate town of Saugerties.
In honor of where the tiny owl was found, the center has taken to calling him "Rockefeller."
