Watching nasty buzzards in the air and wondering why they are flying so low, trying to figure out what dead thing they must be hunting, but looking more intently as they rise and fall I realize they are just teenagers riding the best waves seen in Santa Cruz, Ca in 10 more than years.

garden update
Well, the garden was planted almost a month ago and we have some moderate growth. Pole beans, otherwise known as the encouragers, are strong, bush beans are up, zucchini, cucumbers, squash, and radishes are also up. Struggling to make an appearance are eggplant, lettuce, onions, peppers, tomatoes and okra. No sign of the broccoli, leeks or shallots.
Of more profit than the eventual produce is the time I have enjoyed being out in the garden weeding, or just sitting. The shade begins to cover the garden around 4:30 and it is the most peaceful place to sit and think or write. I have carved out a little section of ground near the water and the garden is surrounded on all four sides by trees and high weeds, making it a very secluded secret garden.

It's not the work which kills people, it's the worry. It's not the revolution that destroys machinery it's the friction.
