isolation day 138, continued
Swampwalk
Went bright and early this morning, after last night’s rain. Weather was ok in the shade, about 75f or so. Sun got strong quickly, though, maybe a dawn swamp walk is in order.
Saw very few birds, maybe 3 grackles and a robin. No mosquitoes or gnats which was a pleasant surprise.
Two squirrels and no sign of alien cat or black and white kitty. I saw a rustling in the woods, but have no idea if it was a fox, cat or possum.
Spotted a cargo plane overhead through the clearing, probably headed to Andrews Air Force Base. There hasn’t been as much air traffic over town in that direction lately, I wonder what dynamic changed? There are times we would see air force one (or marine one), along with a couple of fighters alongside but maybe they are on a new route.
Air conditioning is still working at home for the moment, but I remain cautiously hopeful that it will remain.
Such a sweltering day calls for two types of yeti! A very angry-looking fellow on the left from #safariltd, and the sweetest baby snowball with a cute blue heinie from @woolgatheringcritters
Both were purchased for me by the stunning and divine @maximillian_deersteak
BHK got me a big bag of tiny rubber animals [and some nonanimals], all of which had at least a double, if not a bunch of duplicates… save for this lone woolly mammoth. It is truly teensy, able to stand all four feet on a dime.
I am not sure if I am extra fond of it because it is simply a shaggy little elephant, or if because it stands alone, while other sculpts like the tiny horses and bees have at least 5 like-formed buddies to chum around with, talk about life at the office or whatever.
Clouds are just boiling in right now. It was sunny just 5 minutes ago, bit the clouds just hauling rain this way at top speed. https://bit.ly/2CwNyoW https://bit.ly/2ZQFGHt
