wow. when she stretches she grows before my eyes. i'm keeping my camera away from the water til my new submersible one comes. but we did swim, joyously, and little bear swam the farthest yet out with me following the blue squeeky. nobody in blue bothered us, but the sick independence day holiday looms and the present blues will be looming ominously tomorrow and tomorrow. though the air has been explosive for these three weeks continuing. we still behave responsibly as though free.

thursday is my bear friday, so say so long til monday. i get more fond of little bear daily. defund the police, defend the people.
