Scientists are getting so desperate for the return of sunspots that they are now counting sunspecks. The one on the left is fading away, the one in the middle is a "dead pixel," an artifact of the SOHO spacecraft, and the two on the right are the latest candidates for sunspots. I’m wondering if the lack of activity will mean a cooler-than-usual summer. Well, I can dream, anyhow, as our daytime temps at the rancho climb steadily into the 90s.

Perfect time to come visit north.
The weather ad-on on my screen shows
now: partly sunny, 68F
Wed: 75F, light rain
Thur: 67F, rain
Your weather certainly is tempting. 😉
So, what’s holding you’ll?
Make that y’all. We were up there in March. Like most people we prefer home.
Oops.
Why didn’t you let me know in March? After the 8th I was home, too.
