38F, and predictions for 50F (10C) tomorrow! But it is going to pour with rain! I ran/walked 2.1km today, and that after a long walk on Hampton beach in New Hampshire, where we went to see a beautiful little screech owl sitting in a tree, with many enthusiastic people crowded around taking photographs and exclaiming happily. It was a lovely morning and Tim was in his element, taking many images of the owl and the sea. I also took some pictures with my beloved little point-and-shoot Canon, but my favourite shot of the day was from this afternoon's walk/run. This old apple tree dances in the second meadow, next to 'my' meadow. 
The self-portrait with a charcoal pencil, very quick and simple, I ended up looking fairly serene, which is far from how I actually feel tonight, having struggled frustratedly for hours with the Beekeepers' Newsletter. Tim rescues me when I am foaming at the mouth. Sometimes I hate computer programmes so much! And myself, for volunteering for this position, which I must still hold for another whole year! But how lucky to have a knight in shining armour. Maybe that is why I look serene.
