I didn't get to go.  Partly because my spouse, who is in fragile
health right now, once had to pick me up on a ninety-degree day (and
had a horrible time finding me), and thinks that I didn't learn
anything from the experience.  He'd have been literally worried sick.

Also I had things to do and didn't really wanna go.

Today I had a no-tea ride starting at noon -- slept late, had some
stuff to do before leaving -- to pick up my handicap-parking tag at
the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.  About six miles.

I was thinking that I could catch up on exercise after my usual
farmers-markets tour on Saturday.  I could bring lunch home from the
third market, then take the tea out of the fridge and have another
ride, but Weather Underground says that on Saturday the wind will rise
to thirteen miles per hour (I cruise at five) and be a headwind for
the return leg of every option.  

On the way back from the BMV, I discovered that Sweet Corn Charley has
opened for the season.  So we had steamed roasting ears and nothing
else for supper.

The corn was, well, the first of the season.  Each of us found our
second ear tastier than the first.  (The ears were very small.)

Hokay, today I'm going to send drafts *first*, and send this entry
raw, without cooling and editing.  (Bedtime is bedtime; log out and
lie down.)  (Which reminded me that I hadn't changed into night
clothes.)

Yesterday, on my way to the BMV, just before I reached the
cross-country trails (local-college althletic field) that I use as a
short cut, I saw a white-tail doe standing in the recreationway with
so little concern over the presence of an apex predator that she
allowed her spotted fawn to come out of the bushes and join her.
