I go down to the shore in the morning and depending on the hour the waves are rolling in or moving out, and I say, oh, I am miserable, what shall— what should I do? And the sea says in its lovely voice: Excuse me, I have work to do.” ― Mary Oliver

Phew! El Niño has been doing it’s thing in Tucson. We had close to 3 inches of rain last night alone, with multiple swift water rescues by the FD in flooded washes. The relief from the heat is very welcome. The mosquitoes, not so much.

I thought it was a baby king snake that had ended up in our house somehow. As I’m holding him my husband is repeating the phrase “Red and yellow kill a fellow…”. Whoops.

I met an elderly nun tonight on my walk to the sea. She was sitting on a bench - said she sits here each night and prays. We had a fine talk about pelicans, the Pacific Ocean, California and Hwy 1 She ended our conversation by saying, “thank you - I see you also appreciate the great mystery.” 😢

“Places like #Lochiel with this cottonwood forest, where this ribbon of green runs dozens of miles from #Mexico to the US, these are the last threads of an ecosystem that has declined so much already," said Russ McSpadden, a conservation advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity.

It doesn’t feel like national news is widely reporting what is happening in Spokane, WA. It is incredibly serious. My daughter took this from her front yard yesterday. They are on the cusp of a level 3 area.

The sudden shift from safe, breathable air to hazardous smoke spreading across the country is a reminder of how fragile the conditions that sustain life on our planet are. I wish moments like this helped us recognize our shared vulnerability and motivated us to work together to protect our world.

The waiting during hospice really is the worst. This is the 3rd time around for our family. It is exhausting. Sometimes it’s a straightforward 10 days, others, like we are experiencing now, go from “in the next 12 hours” one day to a rally that is unexpected the next.
