In fact, it was a good day. Fair and comfortable, with cumulus clouds across a bright blue sky. PG and I drove a little, walked a little, enjoyed two good meals together. I learned some things, accomplished others, made dessert (vanilla pudding from scratch), and practiced a piece until I could get through the first third without error at 75% speed.
Oh, and this. I was driving on a side street when I spotted a cottontail rabbit in a yard to my right. The rabbit began moving in the same direction I was driving, and I momentarily lost sight of it behind a parked car.
Just in case, I slowed down, and a second later, the rabbit hopped across the road in front of me. It was barely visible in front of the car hood, and if I'd been going faster, the close call might have been too close. Didn't anyone ever tell it about hrududil?
