Gradualism

Air temperature 67 F, dew point 66, wind WNW about 5 mph, scattered clouds. Thunder overnight with rain, drying off. We're supposed to get lower humidity for a day or so. Bike ride planned.

Thursday logging report

Professional crew felling some largish white pines at about mile 6 on my route, 24"+ diameter. Not an easy job, since they stood around a house. Looks like they are taking the trunks in saw-log lengths, so the wood won't go to waste.

Couple of fresh-killed red squirrels for the roadkill tally. Don't know what transgressions against Squirrel Honor required them to commit suicide.

Still warm and sticky but the roads dried off and I got my ride in. Did not die.

R.I.P. Aretha. You gave us some great music.

We seem to have an F-35 playing around the neighborhood. Noisy thing.
