Goodnight friends! Fairly washed out colourless skies to begin, but a lively, bitter-edged breeze started to patchily clear things out, clouds crumpled and coiled up into tightly wound columns and spirals. Brilliant crimson new leaves earn red-tipped photinia its name, glossy new shoots springing up and out everywhere.

A deep, not totally unpleasant bodily exhaustion suffusing me, post-exertional malaise and muscle soreness twin heavy weights, but becoming somewhat bearable as I habituated over the afternoon. Making it difficult to really rest or sleep well though.

May we find ways to reach out to each other with honesty and grace today!
