Wednesday, 3rd June -- Remember I was whining about the hike yesterday in 90 degrees? Well, staying close to home probably for the whole summer now -- 76 degrees here in southern Marin as compared to 15 miles north. Today we'll have a high of 76 degrees as opposed to 93. Maybe your blood thins out when you're used to cooler weather, something like that, what do you think? I don't think it's acclimating. I remember I never could stand the heat in Texas -- at 3 of 4 year old I had to have a fan in my face in the summer. So maybe it's genetic?

People, if there are peaceful protests going on in your area, join in. Raise your voice. Be part of a vocal group that means something, like the police chief in Flint, Michigan. Take part in improving social justice. If there are rioters out there looting, stealing and destroying, then you need to vote out the mayor and the police chief. Be active, not passive, that's the worst. What do you think?

VORTEX is marching right along. Had to go back and redo some parts or rather make adjustments as elements become clearer -- Still about halfway through the book, which feels really good.
Isn't it interesting all the businesses taking off because of the virus? Like bleach, like masks, goodness, my brain just fell off the rails -- tell me other unexpected windfall companies --

Outside, folk. Too hot, then head out in the morning and evening -- call neighbors, see if they want to walk or visit or have a drink -- you can keep distance, wear masks, no problem, but you really need to be social -- we all have that need -- so don't just shrug your shoulders and lie around and be depressed (or worse, eat) -- take action. Get your neighborhood FIT, help keep everyone's mood up --
