It was a gloomy, cloudy day, but still beautiful. Zip was sitting on his castle, surveying his Kingdom. Maria was brushing the donkeys’ hooves. My rising flower beds continue to blossom. Food is still pouring into the Cambridge Pantry from the Army of Good in response to a call for help—pictures to come.  I’ve got a Zoom meeting with blog readers—now good friends—at 10 a.m.

King of the castle.
