Suffering

Another beautiful morning. This is the best time of year to really enjoy the mornings; and early is better. I was out in back about 4:30, dodging the low flying bats and looking at the stars as they receded in the east; where the approaching sun was creating a silver band of light and chasing the stars away. You do have to be careful at that hour as the spiders have been working all night to perfect their webs and you’re bound to run into one if you stray off the normal paths.

We’re surrounded by agricultural land and so we have to ignore, as best we can…the spiders, the flies and the dust. Plus lots of other unidentified bugs. Did I mention mice? And this time of year is when all of the above combine to harass the human inhabitants on the land.

Speaking of agriculture…pigs. I was listening to the ‘Pig’ the other day and heard Laura Love singing ‘Simple’. Now that’s something you don’t hear much of on NPR. Life is good…I have 3-1/2 great radio stations to listen to now; NPR, KVMR, KZAP (The Pig) and that other Chico public station? The Pig is the only commercial station of the above and I have to suffer through some odd commercials if I want to hear some good music.
