Yeti, we had an abbreviated trip Friday afternoon -- wanted river breeze, but there was more of it than was safe! So we stayed on the Creek, which, well, low tide after a couple of days of rain was pretty stinky. Decided not to repeat the experience on Sat. with the wind undiminished!

So I just repaired the yard and outside from weeks of heat-induced neglect on Sat. Sundays have been gaming days all through the pandemic, so I played D&D with friends 12-6.

Now finally enjoying some human-tolerable weather out here. Finally doesn't feel actively hostile!

Fun fact: Joni wrote The Circle Game after hearing Neil sing Sugar Mountain. If you want to go full bore Canadian bootleg, play Carnival in Kenora by Joni.

When I was Ubering, I pick up a young man named Donovan who lived on Atlantis Dr. (in Holiday, FL). I asked him if he was aware of the song and he hadn't!
