Good Evening,

   I went for a hike this afternoon.  The mist was hanging in the air.  It felt great to breath without smoke or ash in the air.  It has rained off and on for the last two days.  East of Portland they received over 2 inches.  Hopefully that held true farther south.  I noticed a lot more birds flying around.  They didn't like the smoke either.  Plants and trees look a month older than normal.  They don't like breathing carbon monoxide.

   It has been a month since the sun had a spot.  The word is cycle 25 has begun.  I wish it would show a more spirited entry. I spent the week writing some graphics code for a 3D engine.  Each trigonometric function requires a conversion factor.  Really, who thinks in radians?  "I'll cut this board at an angle of PI/4 +/- 2 deciradians."  I'll stick with 360 degrees instead.  If it was good enough for the Babylonians it's good enough for us.  Fie on radian measure.
