What is so rare as a day in June late September or October, for then if ever come the greatest days to enjoy and breathe in the great outdoors. Here in Maine we’ve been having the greatest days the past several days. I’ve gotta get back out there and do some real walking/hiking. (I just got through putting up some Lee Goldsberry signs; Lee is running against Ralph Sarty for State Rep for District 99 here in Maine.) There are NO FREAKING BUGS out any more — no mosquitoes, no black flies, no ticks, and great visibility. You can see everywhere, the distant hills and mountains, the colored (or beginning to be colored) foliage, you name it. I’ve gotta take a little break from politicking even in this critical election year. Anybody else wanta go hiking?

Brian Donohue will be marching today in Brooklyn, New York, with the Brooklyn for Peace organization. Here’s a copy of their poster and schedule.

It’s a long way from Maine to Brooklyn, NY, but hopefully we’re all in this together, in spirit when we can’t participate in body. Good luck to the marchers in Brooklyn today!! And how about that human chain set for Saturday?
