BACK FROM THE BAY

You gotta keep up, I guess. It was way hot today, and if it was hot here, I can’t imagine what it must have been like in DC or NYC. So the domestic partner and I (yes, we have upgraded) took kayaks out on the bay. My favorite activity is to paddle out toward the tip of the Cape and then just lie out and drift back in with the current and the tide. There’s water lapping you the whole way, keeping you cool; and for a few moments I dozed off. Alas, the ziplock bag I put my iPod in leaked and so my most treasured little possession is now dead. So, apparently, is the nomination of Edith Clement. No television here – yay! – so I’ll have to catch the announcement later on the web. Pity. Clement seemed like a good pick to me.
