Another mild day today, but with clouds and moisture in the air. Worked most of the day, then hiked with dog. It was a quick hike. Mucky underfoot. Chickadees and kinglets in the trees. Hazy gray views. Pulse high, breathing, fast pace, east wind. It’s a thing we do every day, dog and I—and love to do.
Just a hike.
