Sense of impending

Air temperature 50 F, wind near calm, scattered fog under clear sky. We are headed back up into the 70s today, rather above average for mid-October in Maine.

When you have been raised and educated to believe that a certain historical figure is a hero, it takes a serious change in worldview to recast them as slime.

Wednesday roadkill report

One adult raccoon dead by the side of the road near the old BOMARC site. Several gray squirrels and a pigeon also logged.

Roadside flowers settling back to asters and clover, with an admixture of dandelions. Aspens, poplars, and birches going yellow, but a lot of them dropping leaves almost as fast as they turn. Same is true of the maples. Oaks and beeches still green.

Rode across town, KC-135s and a C-17 at the airfield. Some stretches of new asphalt that I would have liked to see last spring. Warm for the season, but each ride may be the last. Did not die.
