Wednesday

Yesterday the temperature was in the 80's: today it barely made 60, and the mountains were veiled in wind-raised dust. The hedgehog cactus buds are ready to burst, but not actually open yet; the mesquite trees are covered in tender spring green and the palo verde trees are timidly starting to bloom, and everyone is miserable with allergies.

Find

I found a Montana quarter at the coffee cart today! That probably means that the next one in the series will be out any day now; they always take a while to filter down here, for some reason. I haven't seen a George Washington dollar yet, but since they took away the stamp machine in the Union my chances of meeting a dollar coin at all are pretty low.


(Is it just me being clumsy, or is LJ mangling my HTML today? It took me three goes to get the cut right in the last entry, and I don't usually have any trouble with that.)
