Rain, Monday and Origami

Waiting for the 25B 0715 today

Chilly rainy start to the day. Summer is truly over. We went from late summer to early winter. Completely missed autumn. 

I am sure I have something that I need to be doing – so – I decided to learn a new origami model. A bat. 

dollar bat – total bust. scrap paper bat – has potential.

The dollar bat attempt will end up at Starbucks tomorrow morning. Bat #1 is OK considering the crappiness of paper and my total lack of origami talents. After dinner, I made a wet fold bat #2. Don’t know how it will turn out after it dries. 

Time to step away from current events and get back to origami. 

Paul Allen died this afternoon. He was a neighbor in Hawai’i. Had 5+ sweet acres of land across the street from my hotel. He always provided fireworks for our little village on New Year’s Eve and frequently classed up the waterfront with one of his yachts.

RIP Mr. Allen.
