Huntress

This one's for Asha (missing you on Blip) and Julia and Allegra. Feathers in the verbena bush.

Meanwhile, as I try to Blip, it's with Aduro lying on one arm - where she insists on being no matter how many times I put her down on the floor - sit at the laptop and she's there - sweet, but not exactly conducive to fast typing.

Gratefuls:
- beautifully cool day, but why oh why couldn't it have been like this for our guests??
- that they made it safely back home after a rather stressful day and night
- Mike's fresh bread, which we're about to eat
