The first vacation in two years. We are in Vermont with the Montgomerys. The remnants of hurricane Bill are pelting us. It is not bad to be forced inside. we play games, we play on our computers. There were great naps had. I can hear several playing “pick up sticks” in the kitchen. Our six year old is having fun. I am relaxed. I wish we had better sleep. The Saxton’s River Inn in near the alarm for the volunteer firemen. So far the alarm has sounded every night. Last night it was 2:30 am. ugh. At least it did not wake Andrew.Vermont smells good. I had forgotten how damp it is. Many a bug is out and about. We have had some great bike rides, at least Andrew and I have. It is really wonderful to ride with a six year old. He loves it, but he is very earnest. We got about 5 miles in today.

After a four day weekend in Scottsdale, I came back to this? What was I thinking?
Wrote to all three of my congressmen. I wanted to express my feelings on the alleged “bail out bill.” I got a response from one of them, Sherrod Brown. Can you believe that any of the folks who want to spend a trillion dollars of taxpayer money on a risky scheme that has no real basis in history is not bothering to respond.
It is supposed to go into the “aughts” tonight. It will stay there for the rest of the week. We have this every year. It has been pretty much that way since I was a kid. I am strangely comforted by it while (as I mentioned this morning) slightly freaked by the loss of freedom (don’t say “control”). I wonder whether we will have another cold snap a little later. Has anyone else noticed that we are seeing more articles form scientists about the lack of a scientific consensus on Global Warning and its causes?
