Weary of the drums.

Air temperature 48 F, wind southwest about 5 mph, partly cloudy. May attempt a bike ride. Otherwise quiescent.

Monday floral report

First blue flags blooming in the bog, yellow hawkweed, maybe some remnants of coltsfoot by the golf course, more lupines blooming. Multiflora rose by the Interstate overpasses. No rhodora seen, so I lucked out in getting that on my last ride. Columbine blooming in our home jungle.

No geese seen, cemetery or golf course or the park across our street. Maybe tending nests now.

Probable flat red squirrel in the road near the bog.

Got out on the bike and home *just* before the rain started. Did not die.

Crude personal insults to a bully are a reliable way to goad him into violence.
