Big bright moon overhead but it’s still warm enough that I decided to run the fan in my bedroom for a bit.

I could even take off Tuesday but without a camping permit I’d have to camp somewhere else. I’ll have to think about it some more. I have the time, I’ve not taken off my this summer and it’s going to be quite warm.
