on the


53rd day of summer,

(What is this now?


an ABBAB of 70-73-73-70-73 last 5 days, with more uncertain weather ahead).


There's time, so it's time for the 50th walk on the Vacaville Streets route, parking at the junction of White Sands with Muir,


walking northeast on the former to Rushmore, backtracking and


taking the latter to the circle and


back.


Homeward on this birthday of


one of two above, both of whom, for the world's sake, would have been better not born (for this day, Adolf Hitler, 1889-1945) + another vastly more worthy


(Joan Miro, 1893-1983, in a self-portrait from 1917),


to begin update of
