Day 42: Just Hanging

For the first time in the five weeks I have been here, today was a truly relaxing day, with no hikes or other activity whatsoever.

The day started overcast and foggy looking, as it has been often, but by early morning it had burned off and the rest of the day was warm and I spent it reading a good book in my hammock that I purchased and rigged up on my deck.

The view from here

It has been a long time since I read a good SF novel, and I tripped over Hominids by the Canadian writer Robert Sawyer. Turns out this is the first part of a trilogy called The Neanderthal Parallax.

The second part is Humans, and I am now starting the last part Hybrid.

I am actually going to get out and head down to town for a bite to eat for dinner.
