girl at large

cloudy and overcast today, a small relief from the heatwave, which continues to cause suffering and deaths here in France and throughout southern Europe. the air conditioner is now functioning (albeit with the help of plastic tubing, a square of poster board, the classic duct tape, a mop bucket, a bathmat and a watering can…long story!) in mom's bedroom, which you have already accurately assumed i am using in her absence.
spent the afternoon attempting to catch some of the infrequent breezes on the Smuggler Path on Cap d'Antibes which looks eerily like Cave Point in Door County, Wi.
note: previously unknown to me, a fear of/discomfort with hieghts also applies to viewing via goggles the dark, cavernous depths of the sea. (grimace)
