South wind this morning, right up the river from the ocean, so fog ruled the dawn. That's what happens when the air temperature meets the dewpoint. Now the sun breaks through, so we can look forward to a steam bath and thunderstorms for the remainder of the day.

Got out for my bike ride _before_ the sun, nothing notable in the way of wildlife or previously-unmentioned flora (though the lupines continue unabated, invasive species that they are.) A crew is paving the stretch of road through the bog, consummation devoutly to be wished -- that road was built on "corduroy," basically sections of tree trunks laid crosswise on top of the muck to keep horse and wagon from sinking out of sight. Each paving job is good for about two years....

Hey, you had the chance to get a copy when I was there...:-)

I'm glad you enjoyed SUMMER COUNTRY that much. Spread the word -- authors _always_ need more readers. (And sales, don't forget the more sales bit.)
