Good Morning Gina
A beautiful Friday up-river: enough warmth to create a
sheen of fog over the chill of the water and cool enough
for the grass to hold beads of moisture that glisten in the rising sun at 6:30.
Turning and looking west -- away from the river -- you
can just make out the brood mare stables through the mist, on top and to the
slight right of the statue.
In this secluded bubble -- before getting paper or going
online -- there's a strong sense of All's Right with the World. It is
annoyingly adult to remember that -- recalling Twain's "Life on the
Mississippi" -- the experienced eye knows trouble can lurk right beneath
the placid river surface.
So, in celebration of and to begin to complete the beauty
of a day like today, shall we pledge to significant forward steps on the PCB
clean-up and return of Champlain Canal to full use? I hope so.
Many thanks,
Dan
