July 9

And then the armadillo got close enough to the porch for me to see it close up, and it had its nose buried in the grass snuffling so I could sneak up close enough to touch it, and then I DID touch it. Just brushed its scaly back with my fingertips, soft enough that it didn't react (didn't seem to notice, really). About the size of a bunny, with cute kangaroo ears.

Can see Saturn just below the moon tonight (thanks, Farmers Almanac, for the heads-up).

Balmy as a bathhouse. Near 90 at twilight with no breeze.
