350.org - Kitty R.I.P.

Today, around the world, people gathered around "350," the safe upper limit (parts per million) of carbon in our atmosphere. We rang our church bells 350 times.

Weather patterns here by the pond: October was unseasonably cold. Yesterday we had monsoon like rains, but temperatures were about average for this time of year. The temperatures seem to ping-pong. Last week we had a thin skim of us on the pond.

Friday - our cat,the black cat, died of kidney diease....he has returned to the earth at the edge of the forest edging the hill out back.
