Here in the Sierra, the day gave no indication that such things as storms even exist. The balmy, cloudless afternoon gave way to an evening of lavender haze, and now the first stars are appearing and the crickets have begun their nightly song. Someone nearby mowed their lawn a while ago, and the scent of freshly cut grass fills the air, mingled with the pungent sweat of pine resin. The occasional hum of a passing car, and the barking of a lone dog are the only aural evidence that the place is even inhabited. Going to the mailbox, I scuffed my feet on the pavement just to hear the sound. There is not a breath of breeze. I think I'll water the lawn. I hope scyllcat is alright.
