Fire has indeed broken out in the Coast Ranges north of the Bay Area -- the Hennessey and Spanish Fires near Lake Berryessa merging with others to be dubbed the
L[ake]N[apa]U[Unit] Lightning Complex Fires.
Air quality / visibility are poor enough on the midday
newspaper run
to begin a series of walks along
Ulatis Creek (where at least, initially, the sight lines are not so long, so there is at least the potential of seeing the Lagoon Mountains, forsaking futile attmpts to see the more distant Vacas on the Greenspace route -- and, OK, probably shouldn't be out walking at all on such a day), parking at Community Medical Center and
and rambling
(ah there's the ridge, still!)
towards the
Bike
Path,
then
northeast
to
Lone
Redwood...
on
this
again-very-strange
139th day of
summer,
high up 2 to 108 --
despite, or perhaps because of, the sky cover --
this most-recent 6-day 100+ wave generating in the past 5 the highest 4 temperature figures of the year thus far...

specifically the
Girard de Beaulieu
section,
taking in
the prelude
and actuality of Day 2 re the
2020 Democratic National Convention (including participation by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, b. 1989) to nominate
Joe BIden (b. 1942) as
President! --
with
a

call
much
more
scenic
than
live, plus speeches by
Colin Powell (b. 1937),
John Kerry (b. 1943), and
Jill Biden (b. 1951), with a benediction from
Mariann Budde (b. 1959 -- who righteously spoke out againt the Apostate Devil's desecration of the Bible for political purposes this past June 1 at St. John's Church adjacent to the White House).
Very early in the hours, Seth Meyers (b. 1973) with Robert Costa (b. 1985),
