Icky sticky gray

Air temperature 66 F, wind calm, dew point also 66. Result, low clouds and fog. Will probably attempt a bike ride in a couple of hours, trying to slip it in between the fog and the forecast high in the 80s F this afternoon.

Everybody needs somebody to sneer at.

Thursday floral/roadkill report

Butter-and-eggs blooming, trumpet-vine, and moth mullein. Usual suspects continue, some of which I'm probably mis-identifying from bicycle botany.

Small garter snake, even smaller red-bellied snake, young red fox, and a couple of gray squirrels dead on the asphalt. Also a bloodstain at the top of a hill that could have been a deer or mid-sized mammal such as a raccoon or coyote.

Got out and bicycled through the soup, air temperature 79 F now and dew point 68. Did not die.
