Rachel Maddow says today starts the second half of this year. Hmm. Comet Cupboard - with Megan. Afterwards pictures with Catherine, Thai food and then home for admin meeting. McKinney for Jims meeting with client and a crested white duck buddy. Virgil Flowers says people who are near nature see miracles and find it easier to believe in god - or some such thing. Walking in the park I can see why.

Missed yesterday somehow.

Today we got a picture from Cathey who was packing up for going north. Got fresh flowers for the balcony and threw out trash. No insights today, but intimate and fun and lazy.

Milton. Mom. Got out, downtown for a protest with the dallas black dance community at JFK memorial. 300 people speaking, dancing, chanting. Four different people sharing water and at least one guy picking up trash. Fascinating to hear the young speak their truth, articulating their ideas, sharing their voices. Finished Bosch season six.
