Summer is here.
I went for my morning walk and was dripping by the time I returned to the house. First time this year.
Oh well, I guess we got off easy in the spring. The days were hot, but the mornings have remained fairly mild.
Yesterday and today the light has been filtered quite warm. Wildfires raging east of town in a beautifully wild part of the state have rendered the usually blue skies into something more- well – brownish.
Damn.
I listen to podcasts and audiobooks when I walk by myself. And I try to take a photo every day on my journey.
