Hot today, but not intolerably so. The high was, I believe, only about 92˚F, with low humidity. Currently, it's 82˚F. I wrote 1,610 words on "Dreams of a Poor Wayfaring Stranger." And I proofread the forthcoming fossil turtle paper I'm a coauthor on. My thanks to the folks who were kind enough to send me birthday gifts this year: Setsuled, Dr. David Kirkpatrick, and Gordon Duke. Thank you. Distractions are always welcome and appreciated. Please have a look at the current eBay auctions . Thanks. Later, CRK 5:08 p.m.
