Asylum outside

Air temperature 38 F, near calm, scattered fog. Visibility at the airport 1.5 miles, so you can't see that moose strolling across the other end of the runway.

Saturday post-flood report

Road through the bog down to a single lane, with water over the "upstream" side. Been that way long enough for the public works people to bring in a couple of trailer-mounted traffic lights to alternate the flow. I suspect blocked culverts, maybe beavers at work.

Trees mostly bare except for the oaks and beeches, plus tamaracks golden. Roadside flowers down to a couple of isolated asters and probable goats-beard.

Couple-dozen geese by the cemetery pond and maybe a dozen ducks on it. Mockingbirds singing in a couple of known mocker-zones, claiming their winter food. No roadkill.

Temperature got up into the 50s, sunny and light wind, got out on the bike again. Did not die.
