 Are you in the garden? At the beach ? On-line?   " Sailor Off Newport ," a print suggestion for August  Dear Friends Old and New, Labor Day...on the horizon. Our nation is buffeted by terrible news...and the pattern has been going on for well over a year, closer to two, now. Here is an interesting image for the times...a lonely sailor and his boat just off the Newport, Rhode Island coast line, buffeted by winds and sea against a brilliant summer sky and a vast, blue-green ocean.

Water temperature, however, was 51 degrees. After about 45 minutes, warming up, I finally entered the water, full body.
