Waning Moon
Jupiter Retrograde
Sunny and cold
The car is very, very happy with its oil change.
Worked at Sturgis yesterday, catching up on things. It’s a good place to work. Came back, and did some research/reading in the afternoon, and worked on ideas for the play and for BALTHAZAAR TREASURE. Decided not to head back out to a library in the afternoon. There was (and is) plenty to do off-line.
This morning, I was up early and out the door by 8 AM, heading to the Marine Life Center. I’m working from there today — already followed rounds and asked a lot of questions. The play percolates.
