Got up early today (5:30) and went down for a surf (Steve) and run (Jocelyn & Caly). It is a
beautiful morning!! The air temperature felt cool, the water was a nearly perfect 80 degrees with a
light breeze blowing. Decent waves, felt great to be out in the water surfing for the first time in
over a week. Jocelyn had a great run on the deserted beach. Caly is Caly: any time at the beach is
time well spent in her book. I'd like to think she enjoys it more on pretty days than other days,
but truth be told I suspect that she is pretty close to maximum joy-capacity every time her toes hit
the sand.

We've both (us humans) been fighting a vicious head and chest cold. Mine seems just about gone,
Jocelyn is a day or three behind me, but improving rapidly. I'm feeling lucky that I've got a
fairly un-scheduled Sunday to spend around the yard and pool. It really is heart-breakingly
beautiful out there right now.

And since my coffee is done, I'm going to fill a cup and head out to read my new "Medicinal Plants
of Costa Rica" book and watch some birds.
