Michael Delaney Dowd, August 11, 1925-August 11, 2006

I will miss the gentle, caring spirit that was present in all of the work of Mike Douglas. He was able to balance the wacky world of the Hollywood entertainment industry with faith in his Lord and loyalty to his loved ones. He passed away today, on his 81st birthday. He was a gentleman the likes of which we do not see often enough.

Bright moon, dark fog

The moon is apparently going to make it too bright to see some of the Perseid meteor shower this year, but I doubt that will be our problem. The fog (marine layer) clamped down on us last night and has not begun to burn off as of 9:30am. If it does that again this evening we won't be seeing much of either the moon or the Perseids.
