First of all, “Goodbye, Mork”. Today we received an actual quote for a new house. Time to pause and consider our options. We had gone early, and waited only a brief time before “the man bearing muffins” arrived. After a brief recap of the want list, we left with the promise of something written out by tomorrow. It actually arrived today. That’s a good thing, right?

Blow, wind, blow! Blow tents over the edge. Blow the ocean up over the beach. Blow like you haven’t for a whole month. No blaming some far off named storm. This is the start of the end of summer.

Spent most of today with my eyes closed. Not asleep; that would be too easy. More like a practiced squint. Keeping the sun out of the brain.

Life in our makeshift village goes on. With the summer passing quickly, more familiar faces each morning.
