Saturday, late afternoon, Carmel Valley.

Background jazz (Martin Headman — don't think that you'd know him, a local). Weather perfect now, after morning fog and some midday scuttling confusion. Soft breeze, sun.

Evening plans set: local bistro, just about reachable down the hill in neutral from our place.

All caught up on last week's work. Closure still elusive however.

Thinking about making the turn onto a different road ahead… one whose on ramp is still unmarked for the moment.
