Miami and mangroves.

Favorite Miami fauna so far: Mr. Pelican.

Note to self: 2.5 hrs of mostly open water kayaking with current and wind is a bit too much for my unaccustomed family. Everyone’s arms are tired! In my defense, it was billed more as mangrove river kayaking — there was maybe two minutes of that. Still, we all enjoyed it.

Sunrise photo from Kavi; I was still fast asleep.

Our D200 school board has just approved the Project 2 Bid Results & Credits for a total of $80,580,629.00; we’d previously approved this budget for the project, but now we’re accepting actual bids, which means they can start work.

Home again. Hugged Kevin and the kids, made Kavi tell me about the Olivia Rodrigo concert for 15 minutes (she had SUCH a good time!), school board meeting in 5 minutes.

One quick (hah!) game of Terraforming Mars. Alex Gurevich tromped me even worse than usual, but in my defense, I was tired, and he is very good. Heading home now.

Last Harbin photo. It was splendid.

My night-sky photos are nowhere near as good as Stephanie’s, but I’m kind of impressed with how well the iPhone did with this one. (11 Pro Max)
