Had to go to Walmart today. I effing hate Walmart, but the list was too long. On the way there, sad to see that the sumac is already turning red. Winter is coming... (Game of Thrones Super-fan here)
It's been a cool, wet summer here, really sucked. But it's still too hot and buggy to go home. What to do, what to do!
Starting to make the lists: what to pack, what to buy in Tucson (aware that the last 5 hours we'll have provisions stacked under our feet and all around us.)
Am bittersweet at what I'm leaving and what awaits me in Kino Bay.
What awaits me? Ah, SO much!
Sunrises, sunsets. Have neither here, kind of in a forest.
The Halloween party, Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners en masse. Good produce.
The smell (sea, desert). My dog not having to be leashed...
My roof.
My ATV and the beach.

Steamed clams I gathered from the sandbars at low tide. |

We do have tons of other family here, but didn't get to see much of them. Busy people, nobody's fault. Caprice and Don, no good photos. Oliver and Elliot.
