Flowers!

· Maine Event

Today started with itchy eyes and continued to be allergic for most of the day. This year has been bad for people who don't normally have allergies. Anyway, wheeziness ensues, itchiness. On a positive side, the flowers are spectacular.

Work was busy, but normal busy. Also, we are trying to get a Swahili version of an app out the door.

Good news:

24-hour power from the sun = better batteries

10% of the world's oceans are protected. Why not 50%?

Cedar Waxwings (Bombycilla cedrorum). This was the bird whose song made me decide I needed hearing aids.

6:31 am – 7:47 pm, which is 13 hours and 16 minutes of daylight.

The bird of the day is the Great Blue Heron

Here is a poem for you.

Sending oodles of love,
