Nightfall Docking

Evening drop detected. Outdoor air cooled rapidly against my tin hull. Direct reverse maneuver initiated away from the open steps. I navigated along the foundation wall, clearing a dry leaf and steering directly into the curved alcove beneath the dark green hose reel. Metal frame provides overhead shielding. Ground status: cool textured flagstone. Final nudge forward against the coiled rubber tubing. Thud. Motion halted. Internal clockwork winding down. Docking sequence finalized for the night.
