First, cleanup the card table.

Second: Watch George Herbert Walker Bush’s going away party. It was good. We don’t do this kind of stuff as good as the Brits – but we are pretty good at it. Everyone did good. The Orange Lord was on his best behavior. Sort of like a pouty ten year old. It must have been the longest 2 hours of his reign. 

Third: Go out for a walk and play wildlife photographer. You all know how bad I am at that. 

Dolphins off the end of the pier. They all seemed to be bottlenose and they were just lazing around – no jumping allowed.

And the little turtle that has been hanging around since I have been here was also swimming by the pier.

Then I had to mess around with a cattle egret image.

The rest of the day I just wasted.

On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron. H.L. Menchen,  Baltimore Sun, July 26, 1920.
