Decidedly different Fourth,


walking,


with


Harriet,


in


Davis,


a Near-Pony-Express-Experience,


on E Street, north from Second, past De Vere's Irish Pub,


to Third and


back adjacent to a closed BurgerIM (Tel Aviv chain who's name, Burgerim, is Hebrew for lots of burgers, and is evidently in lots of trouble, far beyond Davis).


Auto return is a kind of reverse-recapitulation of route thus far: past a horsie,


cowie, and


llamaie --


on Hutchison...


then Campbell,


Sievers


(ground zero hop stakes for Ruhstaller Farm -- which has acres adjacent to I-80 north of Kidwell / Pedrick, advertising "We grow beer"),


Pitt School,


Nunes (not Devin, we hope)


orchards,


O'day over


Sweeney Creek,


Lewis,


Weber (another ale locality -- SBC, Solano Brewing Company),


Kilkenny sunflowers -- much with a background of Mt. Diablo, Lagoon / Vaca Mountains, English Hills, etc.


104th day of summer, high up 8 to 98 (Dixon, 93; Davis, 97)...


the froth and substance of a Metropolitan Opera production rebroadcast


W.A. Mozart's Don Giovanni, K. 527 (1787),


over futher academic videographic endeavors...
