Goodnight friends! Growing warmer still, thermometer reading a muggy 21°c in the mid afternoon. Dappling of cloud cover heavier and darker, long luxuriant beams of white-gold light broken into thin sharp-edged rays by the crowns of mountainous cumulus. Patches of loose-flowered, greenish yellow wild mustard blooms sway on pebbly embankments and in forgotten corners, white campion gleam at the margins of woodlands.

Very weary and slow thinking after being somewhat active two days in a row, struggled to get upright enough to eat some lunch. Maybe the thick humidity to the air didn’t help. Having to plod and take care moving, but afternoon got a little better and I was able to get dressed and go out a little. Another cautious, mindfully restful day tomorrow I think.

May we find and build together places of honesty, compassion and trust today!
