Here in Providence, it's 48˚F, but they claim it "feels" like 59˚F (I don't buy it). And here's the stale Hell of yesterday:

that my biography will likely be titled Room.

Hopefully people will have forgotten about Tommy Wiseau by then.

King Eiders (Somateria spectabilis) in the sky and bobbing on the sea. Neither of us had seen King Eiders before; there was a decently sized flock.

Oh, nice. And great photos.

Then, in a fit of boredom, Spooky and I watched Peter Berg's Battleship (2012)

Good grief. That's possibly the most worrying thing I've ever heard of you doing.

I'd never even heard of this boob.

We need some selective amnesia over here.

Our swimming cove, view to the northwest.

That is a beautiful color of water. I miss that.

You guessed it. I was trying to think about Cambrian stratigraphy

It's a good picture.

Three of the four crows. Propitious, I say.

Seriously.

I hope you can get much more of the Island as the weather warms.

The bay was showing off yesterday.

I hope you can get much more of the Island as the weather warms.

It might be a sort of salvation. Are you still up for some reading?

Are you still up for some reading?

Absolutely. I'm still up for visiting, too, once we get past next weekend. (Upcoming week full of doctor's appointments, performing in Belmont on Sunday. I like the latter better, but the former are a necessity)

Very good.

Either there was less now on the island, or it melted more quickly.

Written as is, this is a perfectly CRK opening line.

Why, thank you.

, the relationship between Native North Americans and the horses that were reintroduced by Europeans,

it has always fascinated me that it didnt take all that long for the horses to reach such population growth in the New World.

Well, horses evolved in North America, then spread to Asia via the Bering Strait land bridge. Then became extinct in North America - probably due to human predation. So, when the Europeans reintroduced them, it was sort of like horses were coming home. It was an environment perfectly suited to them. Sadly, over the last century, humans have once again exterminated almost all of North America's wild horses.

between ranchers and fencing things off, the wild horses are getting the short end of it all. Over in Eastern Oregon, we still have some, but BLM has more horses in custody than are actually in the wild.
