March 21, Monday

Bright sunshine, billows of white clouds to the North and a sharp toothed wind out of the West; first we were 4, then 5, then 4 and eventually 12 stood witness to the madness of war and the beauty of homemade cookies - thinly crisp buttery good chocolate chip. Thanks to Charlie.
 The busy wind sparked dark humor about radiation coming on the prevailing winds or is it coming to California - more of the hazardous folly of human hubris.  It seemed the first 30 minutes brought us more angry faces and hostile gestures than I've seen in months.  we speculate that such attitudes are whipped up by our latest/newest detonations of lethal weaponry over a new target nation.  Then a shifting demographic brought us waves and cheers and Lucky 13 hauling plywood South gave us his regular short air horn hello.  2 beautifully smiling children leaned from their windows to wave enthusiastic gestures of peace.  will they know a world without war?
