No call out for Dublin orderlies this morning. The morning started out dark, cloudy, breezy, hazy and cold – 47 degrees F. The lower atmosphere was hazy, sparse clouds in Southeast and Western horizons, the breeze made the temperature colder. The autonomous car company had their facility and flood light turned on, they tested their vehicles pulling trailers the last couple of days. Rabbits were grazing on the soccer and baseball fields, while LaBrona and family were grazing by the fence near the basketball court. Early breakfast and no wildlife appeared after breakfast, so the inmates left their food on the ground and on the basketball court. The beautiful dawn sky was on display: band of orange reddish haze through the translucent clouds; analogous colors peeking over the Sierras filtered by the translucent clouds; red, orange, yellow, light green, light blue and blue; the 1/2 moon was in mid sky at 10 o’clock. I walked on the soccer field trail. As the sun rise over the Sierras all I could see was a bright orange yellowish spot through the translucent clouds; clouds in the vicinity of the sun were peach, mauve, gray and white colors. Completed walking 2 miles and jogged the final 4 miles at 7:30 AM, in 1 hour 14 minutes and 12 seconds.
