Yesterday: Cool and clear, a light breeze. Went out in the kayak, sat on the porch for hours, took several walks down the street.

“What a gorgeous day!” I said to My Darling B as we strolled to the Wheel House for dinner.

“Shhh!” she shot back. “You’ll jinx it!”

Today: Rain. Cold, steady rain from a sky the color of steel.

Dammit.
