January 16 - Clearing
Mercifully,
the rain abates, and
it looks like blue skies ahead,
as the wave upon wave of storms
is perhaps finally over
(although there is possibly
one more inclement day,
before a series of sunshiny ones
kicks in).
So,
out
for
errands
on this
15th day of
Springtime weather --
high
up
3
to
56.
There's
even
motivation
to return to the Vacaville Streets Walks series,
but now focussing on the perimeter, parking at Red Mulberry near White Pine, and
walking
on the latter to
Leisure,
north
on
this
to
Maple,
then
south
again,
always within sight of
Mt. Diablo and the Lagoon / Vaca Mountains,
returning to the car,
with
further
explorations
on
Maple and
Poplar,
returning
via
Orange
southwest
to continue musical endeavors, which include
designing a title page and posting
