A good time to


embark on the


72nd Vacaville Streets Walk,


accomplishing the distance from


West Woodstock Mailbox Divide,


northwest to Arcadia, and thence northeast to


Orlando --


on the


106th day of summer,


high down 13 to


75... the death date of


Mumtaz Mahal (1593-1631, inspiration for



Shah Jahan [1592-166] building the


Taj Mahal, 1653), + birthdays of


Charles Gounod (1818-1893, seen here in a photograph from 1860),


Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971, in one of two 1920 portraits by


Pablo Picasso, 1881-1973 [Self-Portrait, 1907]), and


Maurits Cornelius Escher (1898-1972, Hand with Reflection, 1925).


Oh yes,


still out


and


about,


so,


may as well


take an


errand run


here


and


there


around


the


area,


including


dealing


with


continuing


record-high


petrol


prices.
