Still hot
Oh lord, it's hot. Just staying alive in this season is a trial. I watched some of a DVD on migratory birds and they just set off round the world to find the temperature that suits them, soaring over beautiful landscapes. I think I might do the same. I'll strap my laptop to my back and take off, only stopping to tap away at my keyboard, describing all the wonderful sites I've seen from 2km above land. Might even take my camera and post a few pictures of the mountains of Nepal, the deserts of Siberia, the jungles of South America, the plains of Africa, the lavender fields of France, the patchwork rolling hills of England, the volcanoes of Japan, the fjords of Norway, the Swiss/French Alps, the Wild West of America, the outback of Australia, the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, and on and on, until the battery runs out! Oh, the memories I'll have when I return home, exhausted and watery-eyed. I wonder if birds have a favorite part of thier migratory journey. Do they enjoy flying over the earth? They do it out of necessity, but that doesn't mean they don't enjoy it does it? They escape suffering like all living things so they have must have preferences. Man, they must have a good time up there. I'm looking forward to joining them.
Oh, lord it's hot.
