Goodnight friends! A fortuitous wind, gentle but steady pulled and slivered clouds apart into a loose tendily weave, softening sunglare and cutting a few welcome degrees off the temperature. Yellow st. John’s-wort flowers crisping and shrinking in the heat still, common vetch clambering and sprawling in ever larger webs humming with bees.

Felt fully recovered just in time for a visit from my girlfriend, which joyfully swallows most of the day in anticipation, preparation and an evening spent absorbed in each other.

May we find gentleness and tender companionship today!
