Nice sunrise this morning.

As I was driving to Olympia I saw "crash" signs with flares. Since I could see fire engines, cop cars, and newstrucks ahead, I exited the 101 and as I was crossing the overpass the news report of the crash came on the radio. It's always strange to be in a spot just as that spot is the focus of news attention. Someone ran head-on into someone else and in the fiery crash someone died. How horrible.
It was clear and sunny. I was in jin shin for about 20 minutes when Frank craned his neck to see out the window and announced "fog." That was fast. The weather here is bizarre now and once again the mountains are bare.
Someone gave me a book to read that begins with a blow-by-blow account of a man giving a bath to his mother. She's gradually become a quadriplegic and is almost blind and unable to speak. Ummm. Thank you very much - nice choice.
