What's it all about?

Air temperature 58 F, wind south gusting over 20 mph, cloudy. Foraging morning, maybe bike ride afternoon. Or not. No rain until tonight.

A sign of the times

Recreation in the Maine woods remains dangerous. But this one is peculiar. I suspect that the men involved lacked "documents" and that is why they vanished before help arrived . . .

Tuesday metal bird report

C-17 parked in the visitors' lot at the airport/base, even though the runway is closed again. Not a priority mission, it would seem. I could see construction trucks out on the runway, wetting down the fresh concrete and clearing away dust. They are on a 3 or 4 day schedule now, open and closed, until they complete repaving the runway.

Other than lime trees, there's little new in the floral department. No identifiable roadkill.

Got out on the bike, across town and around detours and home. Still sorting out the route while that bridge is closed. Did not die.
