2145 - Yesterday, chores. Today, chores. Tomorrow, schoolwork. Thereafter, visiting family for the next couple of weeks. Gonna be sparse around here, unless I'm much better at time-slicing than usual. It got to nearly 90 today here, so I had to get out and water in my new plantings. Eventually I'll put in a full front system, but not this year. Ciao!

1302 - Hey. Sorry about that, I've been super-busy. My sister and her family are in town, and we've been doing lots of stuff with them. Yesterday: Annapolis, including a harbor/Severn River tour, the Naval Academy, the State House, and much more. Very tiring, tell the truth, but great pleasure in having them here and spending time with them all.

* Only nine months measured in 2008;
+ Mar-2009 includes low estimate from snowfall

We already have 2.4 inches of rain here in June, and depending on thunderstorms, it could end up a huge month. However, the jetstream track that brought us so much weather over the last five weeks appears to have shifted, finally.


Holy cow! A very bad week, reminiscent of a couple of years back: eighteen US Service Member lives reported lost in the last seven days. Our condolences to the families and units of the fallen.

Visit the rest of the DAYNOTES GANG, a collection of bright minds and sharp wits. Really, I don't know why they tolerate me <grin>. My personal inspiration for these pages is Dr. Jerry Pournelle. I am also indebted to Bob Thompson and Tom Syroid for their patience, guidance and feedback. Of course, I am sustained by and beholden to my lovely wife, Marcia. You can find her online too, at http://www.dutchgirl.net/. Thanks for dropping by.
