good morning,
I went halfs on a I believe a 1978-79 sunflower(then old and used) with my neighbor a long while ago, took it to Lk Washington to learn
to sail in a very brisk wind, got in a drucken arguement, got knocked me overboard, let him have the darn thing.
We "kissed and made up" later. -- the problem he was deaf on one side and two idiots in a wind storm was not
a good start to this now faded dream. But we didn't spend too much- I think the beer cost more.

The bird -- it might be a golden-crown sparrow --- Zonotrichia atricapilla -- they were around up here this winter.

Bug Alert! Went out to check on some wild mahonia that needs to be moved or else the power co. will destroy it -- they
have a clear cutting chipping rig that cleared 2 neighbors away area under the high wires in Jan.- and there is a soft needle pine with the
southwest (edit-don't know directions) bottom limb filled with tent-caterpillars. Could not believe it-- cut and bagged it--the weather and these guys.

Lovely boats and red skies every night
