Catching Up

Hi All,

We are still getting out most days for a two mile walk in spite of the weather (90 degrees, feels like 100).

Yesterday we spotted these blossoms on the Spanish Bayonet plants.

There are three active yellow crowned night heron nests along the trail. This nest has three growing, though still ugly, chicks.

Today the air was so still that sky and reflection were hard to tell apart.

Sandy's Clam chowder made from scratch. It was awesome!

Now a couple of graphs. This one is entertaining though hard to read. 
First line is Coffee- always high in importance.
Next is car, once in lockdown, not so important. Next, Internet, always important but now more so. 
Next is shaving-falls to zero. 
The next, hard to see, is alcohol. It climbs right off the chart (see yellow line through title bar). Toilet paper spikes early but supplies recover. Last is sweatpants that show a steady rise as we develop pandemic paunch.

This last graph is less entertaining. The Univ of Washington pandemic modelers reran their model yesterday. Instead of a gradual decrease in deaths, it shows the beginnings of a spike with an uncertainty range that is almost double the initial peak.
Keep wearing those masks and washing your hands.

Love,

Sandy & Carl
