Picture of the Day

with the climate so off-kilter, summer now comes wrapped in a sense of foreboding:
will there be killing heat, wildfires, or drifting smoke that forces everyone indoors?
locally, we've bucked the global trend, with days on end of below average temps,
but today was a touch warmer than normal and the sky hazed over a little with
smoke from distant fires, the merest hint of the worst we could have expected.
nonetheless, it was a nice day! newlyweds sue and igor came down from port
angeles for a quick overnight visit. sue and sarah went the distance on SUPs
while on shore igor and i were treated to a sun dog. the sky provided more
spectacle after dark--the "shooting stars" of the perseids meteor shower.
